  • The Use of Internal and External “Fire and Heat Metaphors” in Some Rock Lyrics
    STOCKHOLM UNIVERSITY Department of English Do You Really Want to Set Me on Fire, My Love ? The Use of Internal and External “Fire and Heat Metaphors” in some Rock Lyrics Kalle Larsen Linguistic C-essay Spring 2006 Supervisor: Christina Alm-Arvius Abstract The aim of this study has been to investigate whether metaphors in terms of fire and heat in rock lyrics can be interpreted figuratively as well as literally. The terms for these latter two categories are internal and external metaphors . Many rock lyrics are about love, a theme often described with the use of metaphors. One common type of metaphorisation for describing love is to use what in this study has been called “fire and heat metaphors”. These are metaphors that as their source use FIRE and HEAT/WARMTH and map some of these qualities on to the metaphorical target LOVE, which results in metaphorical constructions like I am on fire . Internal and external metaphors are terms coined by Alm-Arvius (2003:78) and they serve the purpose of separating the metaphors that cannot be taken literally from those that can also be given a literal meaning in another context. The main aim of this study has been to investigate whether a set of chosen metaphorical constructions taken from different rock songs can also be interpreted literally in relation to another universe of discourse. Moreover, the semantic and syntactic structures of the metaphor examples have been outlined, and some theories why the constructions should be regarded as internal or external metaphors have been presented. A number of related underlying cognitive structures ( conceptual metaphors ) were identified in this study, and (BEING IN) LOVE IS (EXPERIENCING) HEAT/WARMTH is a structure that allows external metaphorical constructions.

Moore doesn't seem keen on fancy tricks.” – Resident Advisor A “light echo” is the reverberation of light, as opposed to sound. There are flashes of light that become visible from the Earth’s vantage point that are actually from suns and stars that exploded hundreds of years ago, thousands of light years away. When electronic musician Steve Moore decided to call his latest collection of synthesizer sojourns Light Echoes, he wasn’t necessarily likening his sound to a dying star, but when your ears lock in on the lambent electronic textures that fill the album, you just might get the feeling that you’re hearing the impact of some larger-than-life event that played itself out in a distant solar system, but was powerful enough to make an aural impact in a far-flung corner of the universe. On a more earthly plane, Steve Moore made all the sounds on Light Echoes himself, using a bank of synthesizers that would get a vintage analog gearhead all misty. He recorded the six tracks himself as well, in his home studio on six days spread out over the course of about a year.
