Song is not only just for fun and amuse, but also for being an effective way to stimulate writing activity in teaching-learning process. It is because of the song containing words and sentences to learn by the student. The teacher can use this media to convey the lesson and introduce the sentence types such as simple, compound, complex, and compound-complex. Therefore, this research is about study on sentence type used in Justin Bieber’s album My World: The Collection. There are two aims of this research. The first aim is to identify kind of sentence types used in Justin Bieber’s album My World: The Collection. The second aim is to describe the implementation of teaching writing using song of it album. In doing this research, the researcher uses descriptive qualitative methode. In collecting the data, the researcher takes data from internet, observes the data available in the data sheet, rechecks, and makes sure all data well organized. In analyzing the data, the researcher identifies and analyzes the kind of sentence types on the data, describes and discusses the data, and draws conclusions based on the data analyzed. Moreover, the researcher describes the implementation of teaching writing about sentence types found in Justin Bieber’s album My Worlds: The Collection. The result shows that in Justin Bieber’s album My Worlds: The collection, there are four types of sentence found: simple sentence, compound sentence, complex sentence and compound complex sentence. The total number of sentence types found are as follows: 1) 234 simple sentence (57, 6 %), 2) 53 compound sentence (13, 1 %), 3) 108 complex sentence (26, 6 %), 4) 11 compound-complex (2, 7 %). Key words: Teaching writing, sentence types, song lyric.

CHAPTER I INTRODUCTION
A. Background of The Study
Language has important role in the world, especially English as
international language. It used in the other parts of the world and we need to
study language, especially English. According to Thomas (2004: 2) there are
many reasons why we study language. Language as a way of finding out
more about how our brains work and to investigate when the children learn
language. Language can damage our brains results in certain kind of language
disorders (psycholinguistics) so that, it is important to learn and to teach
different languages, the relationship between meaning, language and
perception, the role of language in different cultures, the styles of language
used in literature, the different varieties of language people use and the
differences between different group in linguistic.
We live in a world of language. According to Victoria (2003:3) we
talk to our friends, our associates, our lovers, our teachers, our parents and
our rivals use language. We talk face-to-face and over the telephone, and
everyone responds with more talk. Television and radio further swell this
torrent of words, and even in our dreams we talk and are talked to. We also
talk when there is no one to answer use language. Its mean that the language
is the tool of communication in our live. But, nowadays, English language is
not only used as a mean of human communication but also as a subject
1 learned at school in Indonesia. In global area, Indonesia has been trying to increase the qualities of the people through education. English is a compulsory subject which is teach from elementary school. From the curriculum, we can find implicitly that English should be mastered and used as media to develop science, technology, art, culture, and also to maintain good relationship with other nations. The difficulty of learning English is not only at junior high school but also at the senior high school and even at the university because the process of learning English as foreign language is the same with the process how children learn to talk for the first time. In mastering English, we have to study seriously, and thoroughly. As a student of university, we know that the material given in the mastery of reading, speaking, listening, writing, and vocabulary of graduated English student from elementary school, junior high school, and senior high school is still not good. Although they have studied it, they face some difficulties. In writing for example, they got difficulties expressing their ideas in English. It seems
English is still one of the difficult subject for students.
Writing is important. Many problem faced by the student when they study writing. They got difficulties to express their ideas and difficulties to write down what is in the student mine. They did not know how to write and arrange the sentences. In studying writing we should know about how to write the sentences correctly. To make a good writing is not easy. We need to know and study about sentence structure from the first. When students learn to write, they begin by learning about the types of sentences. According to Alice
2
(162: 1999), sentence is a group of words that we use to communicate our
idea. Sentence is formed from one or more clauses. There are four types of
sentences in English. Simple sentences, compound sentences, complex
sentences, and compound-complex sentences. Before we can identify these
sentence types, we need to understand the following terms; phrase,
independent clause, and dependent clause
Well, in learning English students should know about writing,
especially the type of sentences. By knowing it, students will try how to use it
to express their ideas. We can study about sentence structure by using
Magazine, novel, short story, poem and song lyric. In this research, the
researcher choses the English song lyric in Justin Bieber’s album My Worlds:
The Collection to study about sentence types. As we know that, the songs of
Justin Bieber has some purpose and meaning. Some of them are to tell about
something to listener, to express their ideas or imagine, give illusion and also
as entertainment. So many ways, styles, and sentence structure of the song
writer in writes interesting song and using the kinds of sentences or can be
called sentence types. Because of that, the researcher is interested to make
research about sentence types in song lyric.
Based on the statement above, the researcher is interested to conduct
the research entitled “A Study of Sentence types used In Justin Bieber’s
Album My Worlds: The Collection and its Contribution in Teaching Writing”.
B. Reason for Choosing The Topic
3
In choosing something, of course, we have some considerations. In
choosing this topic, the researcher has some reasons as follows; the researcher
finds that there are many students who faced difficulties when they are
studying writing, especially in writing English. The student did not know how
to write and arrange the sentences correctly. Sometimes, the student feel
bored, and there are many students who are not interested in the material
given when studying writing, especially on type of sentences.
C. Limitation of The Study
There are many aspects in writing and problems faced by student when
they study it. Actually, we can study and found the sentence types in many
medias, like magazine, novel, short story and song, but in this research, the
researcher limits of this study to focus on the study of sentence types used in
Justin Bieber’s album My Worlds: The Collection.
D. Statements of The Problem
Relating to the limitation of the study, the problem in this research can
be formulated as follows:
1. What kind of sentence types used in Justin Bieber album’s My worlds: The
Collection?
2. How is the implementation of teaching writing using Justin Bieber’s
album’s My Worlds: The Collection?
E. Objectives of The Study
4
Based on the statement of the problem above, the writer has two
objective of the study. They are:
1. To identify kind of sentence types used in Justin Bieber’s album My
Worlds: The Collection.
2. To describe the implementation of teaching writing using Justin Bieber’s
album’s My worlds: The Collection.
F. Significance of The Study
Generally, the writer hopes that everyone who reads this thesis can get
some knowledge about Sentence types. The writer hopes that the reader will
be interested in studying writing by understanding the sentence types used in
the song lyric.
This thesis may be useful to the English students who are still
confused about sentence types in writing. The writer hopes that this thesis can
be the answer of it and perhaps useful to be used in teaching-learning process
or English course more interesting.
For the writer himself this thesis hopefully can improve his
knowledge about writing, especially on sentence types. He hopes that he can
understand English song lyric and study it easily.
G. Organization of The Thesis
This thesis is divided into five chapters. The first chapter is
introduction. It consists of background of study, reason for choosing the
topic, limitation of the problem, statement of the problem, objective of the
5 study, significance of the study, clarification of the term, and organization of the thesis.
The second chapter is about review of related literature. It consists of theories related to what will to be discussed in this thesis.
The third chapter is research method. In this chapter, the researcher wants to explain the method which is used in doing the research. It is about type of research, object of research, instrument of the research, technique of collecting data, technique of data analysis, and unit of analysis.
The fourth chapter is research finding and discussion. In this chapter the researcher wants to explain the sentence types found in Justin Bieber’s album My Worlds: The Collection and its contribution in teaching writing.
The last chapter is conclusion and suggestion. In this chapter, the researcher gives the conclusion based on the discussion and then the researcher gives the suggestion.

CHAPTER II REVIEW OF RELATED LITERATURE
A. Previous Studies
In the previous studies, this material has ever been analyzed by Friska
(2009) in the title, An Analysis of Sentence Types in Tennesee Wiliams’s A
streetcar Named desire. In this thesis, the researcher analyzed sentence types
in movie scene. There are six scene in this movie. She described types of
sentence and its total number of each sentence: Simple sentence 205,
compound sentence 35, complex sentence 107, and compound-complex
sentence 26.
It also analyzed by Rimbawana (2012) in the title, English Sentence
Types Analysis of the Editorials in Jakarta Post Issued in April 2011. The aim
of this research is to give a description of the types of English sentence used
in the editorials of The Jakarta Post issued in April 2011. This research is
categorized as descriptive study since it just collects the data, analyzes the
data, and draws conclusion based on the analysis of the data. The source of
the data in this research is the editorial section of the Jakarta post issued in
April 2011. In the month, there are 20 editorials which are analyzed. The data
is gotten by collecting, listing and copying the editorial section in the Jakarta
post issued in April 2011. Then the data is analyzed by means of reading the
data, identifying the sentence structure used in the text, concerning with the
7
number of paragraphs, the number of sentences, and the type of sentences.
After all, a conclusion is made. From the editorials of the Jakarta post issued
in April 2011, the researcher found that the number of sentences is 467
sentences. Those sentences consist of 214 simple sentences, 34 compound
sentences, 186 complex sentences, and 33 compound-complex sentences.
The researcher is interested in conducting the research entitled “A
Study of Sentence types used In Justin Bieber’s Album My Worlds: The
Collection and its Contribution in Teaching Writing.”
The differences between this research and the previous studies on the
media or object of the study. The researcher uses the song lyric of Justin
Bieber’s album My World: The Collection is to give a description of the types
of English sentence and descripts its contribution in teaching writing.
B. Definition of Sentence
The word sentence is actually somewhat problematic. In written
language, a sequence of structurally related clauses normally begins with a
capital letter and ends with a full stop. In other words, the sequence is marked
as being a sentence. In spoken language, however, one has to take intonation
into account, as well as the presence of conjunctions such as, and, if, and so
long as to decide whether clauses are structurally related clauses in speech
might not be acceptable as a sentence in written language. There is, in fact, a
general tendency for such sequences to be longer and more complex in
speech than writing. The term sentence is sometimes used to refer only
written language (Graham, 1996: 246). In other opinion, Gerot (1994: 82)
8
state that, people do not speak in sentences, but they speak in messages,
which are realized grammatically in clauses and clause complex. According
to Richards (2002: 180), sentence is the largest unit of grammatical
organization within which parts of speech (e.g. nouns, verbs, adverbs), and
grammatical classes (e.g. word, phrase, clauses) are said to function. In
English, a sentence normally contains one independent clause with a finite
verb. Units which are larger than the sentence (e.g. paragraph) are regarded as
examples of discourse.
Based on the discussions above, the sentences is a unit of written
language, it does not apply to spoken language. The term of sentence used in
written language, and when the people speak in messages, they use
grammatically in clause. Therefore, the sentence in written language is
different from the spoken language.
C. Basic Sentence in English
According to Nuryanto (1990: 1-2), basic sentence is single, active,
and positive sentence which have subject and predicate. In English grammar,
a subject is one of the two main parts of a sentence. The other main part is the
predicate. The following is the discussion about the parts of basic sentence in
English:
1. Subject
The subject is sometimes called the naming part of a sentence or
clause. It usually appears before the predicate to show; what the sentence
is about, and who or what performs the action. The subject is commonly a
9
noun, pronoun, or noun phrase. A subject may be one word or several
words. There are types of subjects, as follows:
a. The subject may be just a single word: a noun or a pronoun, Such as
1) Felix laughed.
2) He laughed.
In the first example, the proper noun Felix is the subject of the
sentence, and the second example, the personal pronoun he is the
subject.
b. The subject may be a noun phrase; that is, a word group made up of a
head noun and any modifiers, determiners (such as the, a, her), and/or
complements, for example: The first person in line spoke to the
television reporter. In this example, the subject is The first person in
line.
c. Two (or more) nouns, pronouns, or noun phrases may be linked by and
to make a compound subject, such as Winnie and her sister will sing at
the recital this evening. In this example, the compound subject is
Winnie and her sister.
2. Predicate
A predicate is usually defined as a word group that comes after the
subject to complete the meaning of the sentence or clause. A predicate
may be one word or many words. There are types of Predicates, as
follows:
10 a. A predicate may be just a single word: the verb, for example Felix
laughed.
In this first example, the verb laughed is the predicate of the
sentence. b. A predicate may be a word group made up of a main verb and any
helping verbs, for example Winnie will sing.
In the second example, will sing is the predicate. The helping
verb (will) comes before the main verb (sing). c. A predicate may also be a complete verb phrase: that is, a main verb
and all the words related to that verb except the subject, for example
The grass is always greener on the other side.
In this last example, the predicate is the verb phrase is always
greener on the other side. Whether it's just one word or many words,
the predicate usually follows the subject and tells us something about it.
In general, the predicate of the sentence divided in two parts: nominal
predicate and verbal predicate
Based on the statements above, the researcher conclude that the
basic or standard sentence in English is the sentence which have subject
and predicate. It can be formulated (Sentence = Subject + Predicate).
The subject is not only a single word, but also a noun phrase (or more)
noun phrase, nouns, and pronouns. In the other main part of the
sentence is predicate. It can be a single word (verb), a word group, and
a complete verb phrase.
11
The main key of the sentence predicate in English, such as nominal predicate and verbal predicate are using the verb. The verb which is used in sentence predicate is divided in the three parts, as follows: a. Linking verb
A linking verb is a verb which connects a subject to its
predicate without expressing an action. A linking verb is used to re-
identify or describe its subject. The word, phrase, or clause which
follows a linking verb to re-identify or describe the subject is called
the subject complement. The most common linking verb is the verb
to be. Other common ones relate to the five senses (to look, to feel,
to smell, to sound, and to taste). Here is a list of common linking
verbs:
1) To be
(In all its forms, e.g., am, is, are, was, were, will be, was
being, has been.)
2) To appear
3) To become
4) To feel
5) To look
6) To seem
7) To smell
8) To sound
12
9) To taste
The verbs to be, to become, and to seem are always linking
verbs. They always link the subject to the predicate to re-identify or
describe it. However, the other verbs in the list above are not always
linking verbs. Remember, linking verbs do not express an action.
However, some of the verbs in the list can express an action namely
action verbs, for example as the following:
1) He smells the soup.
In this example, smells is not a linking verb. This
time, it is an action verb. It has taken a direct object. He
is doing something to the soup.
2) Tony smells awful.
In this example, smells is a linking verb. It links
the subject Tony to the adjective awful and modify Tony. b. Transitive verbs
Transitive verbs are action verbs that have an object to
receive that action, such as Alice hits the ball. In this example, the
direct object the ball received the action of the verb hit. Here are
some more examples of transitive verbs:
1. I baked some cookies.
2. I rode the bicycle.
3. I moved the chair.
4. I stitched a quilt.
13
All of the verbs in the previous sentences are transitive
because an object is receiving the action of the verb.
c. Intransitive verbs
Intransitive verbs are action verbs but unlike transitive verbs,
they do not have an object receiving the action. Here are some more
examples of intransitive verbs:
1. I laughed.
2. I cried.
3. The book fell.
4. The horse galloped.
5. The sun set.
In all of the above cases the subject is performing the action
of the verb and nothing is receiving the action.
D. Sentence Structure
1. Clauses
Clauses are the building blocks of sentences. A clause is a group of
words that contains (at least) a subject and a verb. There are two kinds of
clauses: independent and dependent. An independent clause contains a
subject and a verb and expresses a complete thought. It can stand alone as
a sentence by itself. An independent clause is formed with a subject and a
verb and often a complement. A dependent clause begins with a
subordinator such as when, while, if, that, or who. A dependent clause does
not express a complete thought, so it is not a sentence by itself. It is also
14
called a sentence fragment. By itself, it is an incomplete sentence, and it is
an error. A dependent clause is formed with a subordinator, a subject, and
a verb. For example as the following:
a. The Sun rose.
b. Water evaporates rapidly in warm climate zones.
c. …when the sun rose...
d….because water evaporates rapidly in warm climate zones...
All of the sentences above are the example of independent clause
and dependent clause. The sentence in (a) and (b) are independent clause.
The sun and water as a subject, rose and evaporates as a verb. In the
sentence (b) has the complement, that is rapidly in warm climate zones.
The example (c) and (d) are different from (a) and (b). They are the
example of dependent clause, they have subordinator when and because.
So that, it cannot stand alone.
A few of the most common subordinators follows; after, before,
that, when, which, although, even though, though, whenever, while, as,
just as, how, unless, where, who, as if, if, until, wherever, whom, as soon
as, since, what, whether, whose, because, so that, etc.
2. Sentence Types
Writing in English begins with the sentence. Sentences are then
combined into larger structures such as essays, business reports, etc. When
people makes sentences, they do many things, they ask questions, make
requests, make statements, or they exclaim a powerful feeling or emotion.
15
Because sentences convey statements, request, strong emotion, and questions, they can be categorized into four different type of sentences; declarative, interrogative, imperative, and exclamatory.
(http://esl.about.com/od/intermediatewriting/a/sentence_types.htm)
The first is declarative sentence. Declarative sentences in the
English language are the sentences that form a statement. A declarative sentence "declares" or states a fact, arrangement or opinion. It can be either positive or negative and it ends with a period (.). The lists below are the example of declarative sentence:
a. Tomorrow I will go to the store.
b. I told her to wear the blue skirt.
c. She did not want to eat the pizza that I gave her.
d. We walked to the mall together.
The second is interrogative sentences. In the English language, the interrogative sentences are the sentences that form a question. In the interrogative form the auxiliary verb precedes the subject which is then followed by the main verb. The interrogative form ends with a question mark (?). The lists below are the example of declarative sentences:
a. What do you think I should wear the pink shoes or the white
sneakers?
b. What did the teacher say to you yesterday?
c. Did you go to the movies yesterday?
d. How long have you lived in France?
16
The third is imperative sentences. In the English language, the imperative sentences are the sentences that make a command or request.
The example as follows;
a. Get me some water.
b. Leave that cat alone.
c. Open the door!
d. Finish your homework.
According to Jendayi (2007) in http//voices.com, many people assume that imperative sentence have no subject when they really do. The subject of imperative sentences is always “you”, since in these type of sentences, the person that is making the command or request is always asking you to do something.
Based on the statements above, the imperative form instructs or some requests. The imperative sentence takes no subject, as 'you' is the implied subject. For this reason, the subject in imperative sentences is called you (understood) because, although the subject may not be visible in the sentence, it is understood that the subject is always “you”, and the imperative form ends with either a period (.) or an exclamation point (!).
To get a clearer understanding, check these sentences out;
a. (You) Get me some water.
b. (You) Leave that cat alone.
c. (You) Open the door!
d. (You) Finish your homework.
17
The forth is exclamatory sentences. In Oxford dictionary, it has meaning a short sound, word or phrase expressing sudden surprise, pain, etc. In the English language are the sentences that attempt to powerful feelings, or emotions. The exclamatory form emphasizes a statement
(either declarative or imperative) with an exclamation point (!). The lists below are the example of exclamatory sentence;
a. I’m leaving!
b. I cannot wait to graduate!
c. That sounds fantastic!
d. I can't believe you said that!
As a conclusion, the best way to distinguish one sentence from the other is to memorize what each type of sentence does. For instance, we can remember that declarative sentences are the statement sentences, interrogative sentences are the question sentences, imperative sentences are the request and command sentences, or the giving order sentences, and exclamatory sentences are the ones that show a strong feeling or emotion.
All of these sentence types further fall into four basic sentence type categories in English. The sentences are simple, compound, complex, and compound-complex sentences. The kind of sentence is determined by the kind of clauses used to form it (Alice, 1999: 173).
18 a. Simple sentence
A simple sentence is a sentence with only one independent
clause, also known as a main clause. Simple sentences contain no
conjunction (i.e., and, but, or, etc.), for example:
1) I run.
2) The girl run into her bedroom.
3) In the backyard, the dog barked and howled at the cat.
In the first example is simple sentence, it has one independent
clause which contains one subject, I, and one predicate, run. Further,
the second sentence also has one independent clause. The subject in
that sentence is, The girl and has the predicate, run into her bedroom.
The predicate is a verb phrase that consist of more than one word,
while the third sentence also has one independent clause which
contains one subject, dog, and one predicate, barked and howled at
the cat. This predicate has two verbs, known as a compound
predicate; barked and howled. This compound verb should not be
confused with a compound sentence. A compound verb is a multi-
word compound that functions as a single verb. One component of
the compound is a light verb or vector, which carries any inflections,
indicating tense, mood, or aspect, but provides only fine shades of
meaning. In that example, The backyard and the cat are prepositional
phrases.
19 b. Compound sentence
A compound sentence is two or more independent clauses
joined together. There are three ways to join the clauses: With a
coordinator, a conjunctive adverb and a semicolon.
1) Compound Sentences with Coordinators
A compound sentence can be formed as follows:
Independent clause, + coordinator + independent clause.
For example: Salt water boils at a lower temperature than
freshwater, so food cooks faster in salt water.
In the example above, the sentence salt water boils at a
lower temperature than freshwater as first independent clause,
and food cooks faster in salt water as second independent
clause. This example has coordinator so. So that sentence
called compound sentence which has two independent clause
and a coordinator.
There are seven coordinators, which are also called
coordinating conjunctions. You can remember them by the
phrase FAN BOYS (For, And, Nor, But, Or, Yet, So). The
following sentences illustrate the meanings of the seven FAN
BOYS coordinators. (Punctuation note: There is a comma after
the first independent clause.)
a) For: Japanese people live longer than most other
nationalities, for they eat healthful diets.
20
The function of coordinator in this sentences is to
add a reason. b) And: They eat a lot of fish and vegetables, and they eat
lightly.
The function of coordinator in this sentences is to
add similar, equal idea. c) Nor: They do not eat a lot of red meat, nor do they eat
many dairy product.
The function of coordinator in this sentences is to
add a negative equal idea. Nor means "and not." It joins two
negative independent clauses, and the question word order
is used after nor. d) But: Diet is one factor in how long people live, but it is not
the only factor.
The function of coordinator in this sentences is to
add an opposite idea. e) Or: However, people should limit the amount of animal fat
in their diets, or they risk getting heart disease.
The function of coordinator in this sentences is to
add an alternative possibility.
f) Yet: Cigarette smoking is a factor in longevity, yet
Japanese and other long lived Asians have a very high rate
of tobacco use.
21
The function of coordinator in this sentences is to
add an unexpected or surprising continuation.
g) So: Doctors say that stress is another longevity factor, so
try to avoid stress if you wish to live a longer life.
The function of coordinator in this sentences is to
add an expected result.
The coordinator but and yet have similar
meanings: They both signal that an opposite idea is coming,
but is preferred when the two clauses are direct opposites.
When the second clause is an unexpected or surprising
continuation because of information given in the first
clause, yet is preferred. (The coordinator but is acceptable
for both meanings; yet for only one meaning.)
2) Compound Sentences with Conjunctive Adverbs
A second way to form a compound sentence is as
follows:
Independent clause; + conjunctive adverb, + independent
clause
For example: Salt water boils at a higher temperature than
freshwater; therefore, food cooks faster in salt water.
In the example above, the sentence is used a
semicolon (;) and comma (,) after the conjunctive adverb
therefore.
22
Several transition signals, such as on the other hand,
as a result, and for example, act like conjunctive adverbs;
they can also connect independent clauses with a semicolon
and a comma. The following lists common conjunctive
adverbs and a few transition signals that can be used in this
way;
a) To add a similar, equal idea: also, besides, furthermore,
in addition, moreover, as well, too.
b) To add an unexpected or surprising continuation:
however, nevertheless, nonetheless, still.
c) To add a complete contrast: on the other hand, in
contrast.
d) To give an alternative possibility: otherwise.
e) To add an expected result: accordingly, as a result,
consequently, hence, therefore, thus.
f) To add an example: for example, for instance.
3) Compound Sentences with Semicolons
A third way to form a compound sentence is to
connect the two independent clauses with a semicolon alone,
for example: Poland was the first Eastern European country
to turn away from communism; others soon followed.
This kind of compound sentence is possible only when
the two independent clauses are closely related in meaning. If
23
they are not closely related, they should be writ- ten as two
simple sentences, each ending with a period. c. Complex Sentences
A complex sentence contains one independent clause and
one (or more) dependent clause(s). In a complex sentence, one idea
is generally more important than the other. We place the more
important idea in the independent clause and the less important
idea in the dependent clause. There are three kinds of dependent
clauses: adverb, adjective, and noun.
1) Complex Sentences with Adverb Clauses
An adverb clause acts like an adverb; that is, it tells
where, when, why, and how. An adverb clause begins with a
subordinator, such as when, while, because, although, if, so, or
that. It can come before or after an independent clause. The
sentences below are the example of complex sentences with
adverb clause;
a) Although women in the United States could own property,
they could not vote until 1920.
b) A citizen can vote in the United States when he or she is 18
years old.
In the first example, the dependent adverb clause is
Although women in United States could own property. It
has a subordinator, although. Besides that, this sentence has
24
an independent clause, they could not vote until 1920 and
before that sentence is used a comma. While, the second
example a dependent adverb clause comes after an
independent clause and use a subordinator when without
comma.
2) Complex Sentences with Adjective Clauses
An adjective clause acts like an adjective; that is, it
describes a noun or pronoun. An adjective clause begins with a
relative pronoun, such as who, whom, which, whose, or that, or
with a relative adverb, such as where or when. It follows the
noun or pronoun it describes. Let’s see the following examples:
a) Men who are not married are called bachelors.
b) Last year we vacationed in Cozumel, which
features excellent scuba diving.
3) Complex Sentences with Noun Clauses
A noun clause begins with a wh-question word, that,
whether, and sometimes if. A noun clause acts like a noun; it
can be either the subject or an object of the independent clause.
The sentences below are the example of complex sentences
with noun clauses.
a) That there is a hole in the ozone layer of Earth's
atmosphere is well known.
b) Scientists know what caused it.
25
In the first example, That there is a hole in the ozone
layer of Earth's atmosphere is the subject of the verb is. In the
second example, what caused it is the object of the verb know. d. Compound- Complex Sentences
A Compound-complex sentence has at least three clauses,
at least two of which are independent. We can use almost any
combination of dependent and independent clauses. Just be sure
that there is at least one independent clause. In the following
examples, independent clauses are underlined word and dependent
clauses with bold word.
1) I wanted to travel after I graduated from college;
however, I had to go to work immediately.
2) After I graduated from college, I wanted to travel, but I
had to go to work immediately.
3) I wanted to travel after I graduated from college, but I
had to go to work immediately because I had to support
my family.
4) I could not decide where I should work or what I
should do so at first I did nothing.
Punctuate the compound part of a compound-complex
sentence like a compound sentence; that is, use a
semicolon/comma combination (sentence 1), or put a comma
before a coordinator joining two independent clauses (sentences
26
2, 3, and 4). Punctuate the complex part like a complex sentence.
With adverb clauses, put a comma after a dependent adverb
clause (sentence 2) but not before it (sentence 3). With noun
clauses (sentence 4), use no commas.
As a conclusion of the discussions and examples about
sentence types above that, a simple sentence type contains one
independent clause and no dependent clause. Then, a compound
sentence is composed of at least two independent clauses. The
clauses are joined by a coordinating conjunction (with or without a
comma), a semicolon that functions as a conjunction, a colon
instead of a semicolon between two sentences when the second
sentence explains or illustrates the first sentence and no
coordinating conjunction is being used to connect the sentences, or
a conjunctive adverb preceded by semicolon. A conjunction can be
used to make a compound sentence. The use of a comma to
separate two independent clause without the addition of an
appropriate conjunction is called a comma splice and is generally
considered an error (when used in the English language).
E. Teaching Writing
Harmer (2004: 57) describes that teaching means to give (someone
knowledge) or to instruct or train (someone). It is undertaking certain ethical
task or activities the intension of which is to induce learning. Harmer
(1998:78) also states that the reasons for teaching writing to students of
27
English as a foreign language include reinforcement, language development, learning style and, most importantly, writing as a skill in its own right. We will look at each of these in turn.
1. Reinforcement
Some students acquire languages in purely oral or aural way, but
most of us benefit greatly from seeing the language written down. The
visual demonstration of language construction is invaluable for both our
understanding of how it all fits together and as an aid to committing the
new language to memory. Students often find it useful to write sentences
using new language shortly after they have studied it.
2. Language development
We cannot be sure, but it seems that the actual process of writing
(rather like the process of speaking) helps us to learn as we go along. The
mental activity we have to go through in order to construct proper written
texts is all part of the ongoing learning experience.
3. Learning style
Some students are fantastically quick at picking up language just
by looking and listening. For the rest of us, it may take a little longer. For
many learners, the time to think things through, to produce language in a
slower way, is invaluable. Writing is appropriate for such learners. It can
also be a quiet reflective activity instead of the rush and bother of
interpersonal face to face communication.
28
4. Writing as a skill
The most important reason for teaching writing, of course, that it is
a basic language skill, just as important as speaking, listening and reading.
Students need to know how to write letters, to put written reports together,
reply advertisements, and write using electronic media. They need to know
some of writing’s special conventions (punctuation, paragraph
construction, etc.) just as they need to know how to pronounce spoken
English appropriately. Part of our job is to give them that skill.
Based on the reference above, the researcher conclude that there
are four reasons for teaching writing; reinforcement of learnt language, the
development of the students’ language through the activity of writing, the
appropriate of the activity of writing for some styles of learning and the
importance of writing as a skill in its own right.
F. Media in Teaching Learning Process
The use of media facilities the teacher and students to reach the goals
of the study. Teaching media is one of the components involved in teaching
learning process. It is strongly suggested that the teacher makes use of
teaching medium to support the presentation of the material in the class room.
By using media during the teaching learning process, it is hoped that the
teacher will be able to motivate the students to learn and pay attention to the
material presents.
29
Media are forms of communication either printed or audio visual and
the tools. And teaching media are means that are used to convey teaching
messages (Arsyad, 2006: 4).
From the definitions above, the writer concludes that teaching media
are the means that used by the teacher to convey teaching material to the
students. It can be printed or audio visual, and the tools such as song or song
lyrics of Justin Bieber’s album.
G. Song as A Media in Teaching Writing
This part talks about song as media in teaching writing of English. It
has many contributions in teaching writing. According to Harmer (2004: 65),
music or song can be a very effective way to stimulate a writing activity since
it often provokes strong feelings and ideas. There is a universality about music
which means that much of it easy for everyone to understand. Choosing the
right song is vitally important. Much of the bet music (for writing purposes) is
instrumental. We do not want student to be distracted by listening out for
words. On the contrary, we want the music to speak to them directly. We need
music they can respond to. A lot of classical music forms around the world is
very descriptive both in terms of mood and also because composers, both past
and present, have tried to describe events and people with their compositions.
Karmer (http:www.mla.com/adlt/bulletin.htm) states that songs are
good for English teaching because songs are funny. They promote mimics,
gestures associated to the meaning. They are good to introduce supra-
30
segmental phonetics. Students play a participative role. According to Paul
(2003: 58), there are song for all ages and level. Song can add feeling and
rhythm to language practice that might otherwise be flat. They also help
children remember things more easily and draw children more deeply into a
lesson. Philips (1993:94) also state that music and rhythm it much easier to
imitate and remember language than words which are just spoken.
From the statements above, the researcher can conclude that song are
good for teaching English. It will make the process of teaching writing easier.
The researcher assumes that it is effective using song/song lyric in teaching
English writing.
H. Definition of Song lyric
Almost everyone loves song. Songs almost appear everyday in our life
whether we realize it or not, songs have become part of our life. Song is a
media to express our feeling.
According to Simms (1993: 29), song is short piece in our concise
movement for the medium of solo voice and piano. Song is a group of
arrangements which consist of lyrics and elements of music like rhythm,
melody, harmony and expressions.
Song is a musical composition. Song contain vocal parts that are
performed, ‘sung,’ and generally feature words (lyrics), commonly followed
by other musical instruments. The word of songs are typically of a poetic,
rhyming nature, although they may be religious verses or free prose.
(http://en.wikipedia.com/wiki/song)
31
Then lyrics available in http://en.wikipedia.com/wiki/lyric (in singular
form Lyric) are a set of words that make up a song. The writer of lyrics is a
lyricist or lyrist.
Based on the references above, the researcher concludes that song
lyric is a set of words that make up a song or a group of beautiful words in
which there is a message in it to be conveyed to other people and presented
with beautiful music. It deals with some themes. It deals with story, advice,
study, religion, environment, universe, love, happy and sad feeling.
I. Justin Bieber’s Album My worlds: The Collection.
My Worlds: The Collection is the first compilation album released by
Canadian recording artist Justin Bieber. Justin Bieber born on March 1, 1994,
he has started singing since he was 12 and he finished the second place when
participating in a local singing competition. He had vocal coaches and
manager. As the international alternative to the Walmart and Sam's Club
exclusive My Worlds Acoustic (2010), My Worlds: The Collection was
released in numerous European countries on November 19, 2010. The album
consists of two discs; the first is a slightly altered version of My Worlds
Acoustic, and the second is My Worlds, a compilation itself made up of My
World (2009) and My World 2.0 (2010). In addition, the album also features a
new song, an inspirational ballad entitled "Pray", a Jaden Smith collaboration,
"Never Say Never", and remixes of "Somebody to Love". The new versions of
the songs were produced by Bieber's music director, Dan Kanter, his vocal
producer Kuk Harrell, and also producer Rob Wells. While most reviewers
32 complimented the set, several thought that its release was unneeded. The album charted moderately in Europe, reaching the top half of several album charts. Here are the list of song in My World Album; One Time, Baby, One
Less Lonely Girl, Down to Earth, U Smile, Stuck in the Moment, Favorite
Girl, That Should Be Me, Never Say Never, Pray, Somebody to Love, Bigger,
First Dance, Love Me, Common Denominator, Runaway Love, Never Let
You Go, Overboard, Eenie Meenie, Up, and Where Are You Now?.

CHAPTER III RESEARCH METHODOLOGY
. Research method is needed to help the researcher to find the result of the study. Research method, which deals with the ways of the study conducted, is really helpful for the researcher in solving the problem. Besides that, the subject matter being studied will be clear and easy to understand, if an adequate method is applied. According to Arikunto (2010: 203), research method is a way used by the researcher in collecting data.
In this chapter, the researcher will explain the method that the researcher uses in this study. Those are type of research, object of the study, source of the data, instrument of the research, technique of collecting data, data analysis, and unit of analysis.
A. Type of Research
According to Sugiyono (2012: 7-9), there are two types of research.
They are quantitative research and qualitative research. Quantitative research is
research that is based on the philosophy of positivism, is used to examine the
population or a particular sample, data collection using research instruments,
data analysis is quantitative or statistics in order to test the hypothesis that have
been applied. Meanwhile, qualitative research is research that is based on the
philosophy post-positivism, is used to examine the condition of the natural
object where the researcher is the key of instrument, data analysis is inductive
or qualitative, and the results of qualitative research more emphasis on the
34
meaning of the generalization. As cited by Sugiyono (2012: 13), Bogdan and
Biklen (1982) state that characteristics of qualitative research is descriptive.
The data conducted is in the forms of words or picture than a number.
Based on the explanation above, this research is a descriptive
qualitative. The researcher uses this research type to conduct the study because
the data produced are in the form of words. The goal of qualitative research is a
depth of understanding. Furthermore, this research is categorized as qualitative
research since the data are taken from words, phrases, clauses, and sentences;
then, the sentences were analyzed descriptively and explained in detail. In this
research, the researcher intents to identify kind of sentence types used in Justin
Bieber’s album My Worlds: The Collection and to describe the implementation
of teaching writing using it.
B. Object of Research
Objects of research here means the object which the researcher tries to
examine. This is a qualitative research; therefore, it is different from
quantitative one. Qualitative research does not use population because it starts
from a certain case in certain social situation and the result of data analysis will
not be generalized to population but will be transferred to other places in the
same social condition as the observed case (Sugiyono, 2012: 216). The object
of this research is the album of Justin Bieber My Worlds: The Collection.
35
C. Source of The Data
A researcher needed a data indeed. Data is information or fact
(Hornby, 1995: 109). According Arikunto (2013: 172), source of data on the
research is subject from where the data is acquired. While if the researcher uses
observation technique, the source of data can be goods, activity, or a process of
something. Moreover, if the researcher uses documents, the source of data is
documentation.
Data is needed by the researcher because data is the key element of
research. We could not do research without analyzing data. Source of the data
used in this research was document in the form of song lyric. The researcher
takes the data from song lyric on the Justin Bieber’s album My Worlds: The
Collection.
D. Instrument of The research
In the qualitative research, the researcher is the key instrument.
According to Sugiyono (2012: 222), research instrument is a tool that is used to
measure nature phenomenon or social which is observed. In the qualitative
research, the instrument or the tool of research is the researcher himself.
Therefore, the researcher as the human instrument, must determine the focus of
research, choose the source of data, and do the collecting of data. Furthermore,
the researcher has to rate the data, to analyze the data, and to interprete the
data. The last one, the researcher makes the conclusion of the interpretation of
data.
36
E. Technique of Collecting Data
Technique of collecting data is the strategic way in the research because
the main objective of the research is gaining the data. Without knowing the
technique of collecting data, the research will not get data that is fulfill the
standard of set in data (Sugiyono, 2012: 224). Based on the way of collecting
data, the collecting data can be done through observation, interview,
questioner, documentation, and triangulation (Sugiyono, 2012: 225).
The researcher uses documentation as the technique of collecting data
for doing the research. According to Sugiyono (2012: 240), document is the
note of event in the past. Documents can be written language, picture, or
monumental work from a person. Documentary method is the technique in
getting the data about the cases or variable as note, transcript, book, magazine
and newspaper. The researcher uses written document in doing this research.
By using documentary method, he takes song lyric in the album of Justin
Bieber My World that he saved from internet.
In collecting data, the researcher takes several steps as follows:
1. collecting the songs of Justin Bieber’s Album My Worlds: The
Collection
2. searching for song lyric and saving it from internet
3. reading each song lyric as the data
4. attempting to understand the construct of each song lyric.
37
F. Technique of Data Analysis
In analyzing the data, this research applied descriptive method.
Analyze is study or examine something especially separating something into its
parts (Hornby, 1995: 13). According to Sugiyono (2012: 224), data analysis is
the process of systematically the data found from interviews, field notes, and
documentation. The way of analyzing data is by organizing the data into
category, explaining it into its parts, synthesizing, arranging it, choosing ,
which is important and would be studied, and makes a conclusion.
After collecting the data, the researcher would like to analyze using the
following steps:
1. Observing the data available in the data sheet
2. Rechecking and making sure all data were organized properly
3. Identifying the kind of sentence types on the data selected
4. Describing and discussing the data
5. Drawing conclusions based on the data analyzed.
G. Unit of Analysis
The unit of analysis of this research are the sentences in the song lyrics
of Justin Bieber’s album My Worlds: The collection.
38
CHAPTER IV RESEARCH FINDING AND DISCUSSION
A. Research Finding
In this point, the researcher will analyze the sentence types used in
Justin Bieber’s album My World: The Collection. There are two tables related
to the research finding.
Table 1 Sentence types found in Justin Bieber’s album My World: The Collection.

Based on the first table, there are 19 song titles analyzed. There are 234 simple sentences found, 53 compound sentences found, 109 complex sentences, and 11 compound-complex Sentences.
Based on the second table, the researcher finds the percentage of each sentence types. The percentage is taken from the frequency of each sentence types found, divided by the total number of all sentences found, and multipled by 100
%. The percentage of all sentence types found are as follow: 1) 57, 6 % simple
40 sentences, 2) 13, 1 % compound sentences, 3) 26, 6 % complex sentences, 4) 2, 7
% compound-complex sentences.
The discussion of the research finding above will be presented in detail on the next subtitle.
B. Discussion
1. Simple Sentence
A simple sentence is a sentence with only one independent clause,
also known as a main clause. Simple sentences contain no conjunction (i.e.,
and, but, or, etc.). (As seen on chapter II page 18).
The simple sentences that used in Justin Bieber’s album My World:
The collection from a song title Favorite Girl consists of 11 sentences; One
Time consists of 6 sentences; Down To The Earth consists of 5 sentences;
Bigger consists of 12 sentences; One Less Lonely Girl consists of 19
sentences; First Dance consists of 9 sentences; Love Me consists of 12
sentences; Common Denominator consists of 15 sentences; Baby consists of
16 sentences; Stuck In The Moment consists 7 sentences; U Smile consists of
8 sentences; Runaway Love consists of 13 sentences; Never Let You Go
consists of 19 sentences; Overboard consists of 10 sentences; Up Consists
of 15 sentences; That Should Be Me consists of 13; Pray consists of 15
sentences; Never Say Never consists of 18 sentences; and Eenie Meenie
consists of 11 sentences. Those simple sentences above can be seen in the
following table.

Simple sentence is one of various sentence types that used in Justin
Bieber’s album My World: The collection. There are some forms used in the sentences: declarative, interrogative, imperative, and exclamation. The first form is declarative. A declarative sentence "declares" or states a fact, arrangement or opinion. It can be either positive or negative and it ends with a period (.) (as seen on chapter II page 15), such as (1) You were still bigger
51 than me from a song title of Bigger, and (2) He didn’t even touch his food from a song title of One Less Lonely Girl etc. The second one is interrogative sentences. An interrogative sentence is the sentences that is in a question form. It form ends with a question mark (?) (As seen on chapter
II page 15-16), such as How many torn photograph are you taping back? from a song title of One Less Lonely Girl, and Are we an item? from a song title of Baby etc. The third one is imperative. The imperative sentence is a sentences that states a command or request (as seen on chapter II page 16-
17) such as Take my hand, watch my feet, and follow me from a song title of
Never Let You Go etc. The last one is the exclamatory. The exclamatory is a sentences that attempts to powerful feelings or emotions. The exclamatory emphasizes a statement (either declarative or imperative) with an exclamation point (!) (As seen on chapter II page 17) such as I will never say never!, I will fight until forever! from a song title of Never Say Never.
Besides that, the song lyric in this album using the apostrophe in sentences to showing omission or contraction. A contraction is a word or phrase that’s (or that has) been shortened by dropping one or more letters. In writing, an apostrophe takes the place of the missing letters.
(http://www.oxforddictionaries.com/words/apostrophe)
Here are some examples of apostrophes that indicate missing letters:
1. I’m short for I am such as I’m bigger from a song title of Bigger.
52
2. You’re short for You are such as You’re my one love from a song
title of One Time.
3. Don’t short for do not such as I don’t need something else from a
song title of Baby.
4. I’ll short for I will such as I’ll play no games from a song title of
Favorite Girl.
5. Ain’t
Ain't has several antecedents in English, corresponding to
the various forms of to be not and to have not that ain't contracts. It
is a slight adaptation of 'is not', 'am not', 'are not' and 'have not,'
such as You ain’t seen nothing from a song title of U smile. Aint
short for are not.
6. Dropping the “g” at the end of “ing” and replace it with an
apostrophe such as I’ll come runnin’ from a song title of U Smile,
etc.
In the song of Justin Bieber’s album My World: The collection also using slang word in the sentence of song lyric such as wanna, gonna, and gotcha. The following are the example of the use of wanna, gonna, and gotcha contraction.
53
1. Wanna stand for want to such as I don’t wanna go back to just
being one half of the equation from a song title of Common
Denominator.
2. Gonna stand for go to such as We gonna do our dance from a song
title of Never Let You Go, etc.
3. Gotcha
Gotcha actually has several meanings. All of them can be
derived from the phrase of which this is a phonetic spelling,
namely "[I have] got you".
a. Literally, from the sense of got = "caught, obtained", it means
"I've caught you". As in, you were falling, and I caught you,
or you were running, and I grabbed you such as I gotcha little
bro from a song title of Never Say Never.
b. It's a short step from the benign type of caught to the red-
handed type of caught. Thus, gotcha is often used when you
witness someone doing something naughty.
c. Again, it's a short step from I-caught-you-doing-something-
you-oughtn't to Surprise! I tricked you! This sense
of gotcha is used when someone falls for a practical joke, for
example.
d. A somewhat-natural progression from the "I tricked you"
meaning is gotcha used as a noun: this is a feature of a
54
system (e.g. a programming language) which trips you up or
catches you off-guard.
e. And finally, from the figurative sense of got =
"understood", gotcha can be used to mean "Aha, I see now"
or "I understand".

2. Compound Sentence
A compound sentence is two or more independent clauses joined
together. There are three ways to join the clauses: With a coordinator (For,
And, Nor, But, Or, Yet, So), a conjunctive adverb (also, besides,
furthermore, in addition, moreover, as well, too, however, nevertheless,
nonetheless, still, on the other hand, in contrast, otherwise, accordingly, as
a result, consequently, hence, therefore, thus. for example, for instance) and
a semicolon. (As seen on chapter II page 19-22).

56
I'm bigger. 15 I'm bigger, and you're bigger. “Bigger”
16 How many I told you's and start overs, “One Less Lonely and shoulders have you cried on before? Girl” 17 I couldn't ask for more, we're rockin' back “First Dance” and forth. 18 I can't deny, so many thoughts in my “First Dance” mind. 19 Yeah you never forget your first dance, so “First Dance” take advantage of the slow dance. 20 My heart is blind, but I don't care. “Love Me” 21 Just a fraction of your love fills the air, "Common and I fall in love with you. Denominator" 22 You know you love me; I know you care. “Baby” 23 Just shout whenever, and I'll be there. “Baby” 24 You are my love, you are my heart, and “Baby” we will never ever ever be apart. 25 My first love broke my heart for the first “Baby” time, and I was like. 26 I just can't believe, we ain't together. “Baby” 27 I wanna play it cool, but I'm losin' you. “Baby” 28 I'll buy you anything; I'll buy you any “Baby” ring. 29 I'm in pieces; baby fix me, and just shake “Baby” me ’til you wake me from this bad dream. 30 I used to tweet you and text you and call “Baby” you and hit you on Facebook all the time, but, but, but now you gone. 31 Yeah she was my lover, but now onto “Baby” another like.
57
32 Watch them play for ya, for you I'd be. "Somebody To Love" 33 I don't need a whole lot, but for you I "Somebody To Love" admit.
34 I'd rather give you the world, or we can "Somebody To Love" share mine. 35 I can bring; give you the finer things, "Somebody To Love" yeah. 36 Now you don't wanna let go, and I don't "Stuck In The wanna let you know. Moment" 37 I wish we had another time; I wish we had "Stuck In The another place. Moment" 38 Everything we have is stuck in the "Stuck In The moment, and there's nothing my heart can Moment" do. 39 Baby, we both have the right to disagree, "Stuck In The and I ain't with it. Moment" 40 I'd give it all up for her, but it'll never be "Runaway Love" enough. 41 And this love's too strong, so baby know "Never Let You Go" for sure. 42 Feels like I'm drowning without your love, "Overboard" so throw yourself out to me, my lifesaver. 43 I know, but you're only taking and not "Overboard" giving anymore. 44 You've always been my girl, and I'm not “Up” ready to call it quits. 45 It's a big big world, and I'm gonna show “Up” you all of it. 46 I close my eyes, and I can see a better day "Pray" 47 I'm strong enough to climb the highest “Never Say Never” tower, and I'm fast enough to run across the sea.
58
48 Now he's bigger than me, taller than me, “Never Say Never” and he's older than me, and stronger than me. 49 His arms a little bit longer than me, but he “Never Say Never” ain't on a JB song with me! 50 I gotta be the best, and yes. “Never Say Never” 51 I conquered the giant, so now I got the “Never Say Never” world in my hand. 52 I was born from two stars, so the moon's “Never Say Never” where I land (I'm gone!). 53 Pick it up, up, up, and never say never “Never Say Never” TOTAL 53
From the table of compound sentence above, the researcher finds some point to discuss. Compound sentence consists of two or more simple sentences separated by coordinate conjunction. The following table is the form of compound sentences.
Table 5 Form of compound sentences
Compound Sentence=
* < Declarative Sentence > , co. conj. < Declarative Sentence >
* < Imperative Sentence >, co. conj. < Imperative Sentence >
As in
I’m bigger, and you’re bigger from a song title of Bigger. The first and
the second independent are declarative sentences.
59
When a compound sentence, which has two independent clauses, has
no coordinating conjunction between those two independent clauses, the
recommended punctuation is a semicolon (;). The sentences are look like
this. (1) I'll buy you anything; I'll buy you any ring. (2) You know you love
me; I know you care from a song title of Baby. You cannot use a comma to
join these two independent clauses because there is no coordinating
conjunction, it calls comma splices such as You know you love me, I know
you care. When two independent clauses occur in the same sentence, the
semicolon is mandatory. You may also replace the semicolon with a period
and create two sentences such as You know you love me. I know you care.
3. Complex Sentence
A complex sentence contains one independent clause and one (or more)
dependent clause(s). In a complex sentence, one idea is generally more
important than the other. We place the more important idea in the
independent clause and the less important idea in the dependent clause..
There are three kinds of dependent clauses: adverb, adjective, and noun. A
dependent clause starts with subordinating conjunction, such as when, while,
because, although, if, so, that, where, when, why, how, etc. (as seen on
chapter II page 23-24).
The complex sentences that used in Justin Bieber’s album My
World: The collection from a song title Favorite Girl consists of 7
sentences; One Time consists of 6 sentences; Down To The Earth consists of
60
2 sentences; Bigger consists of 3 sentences; One Less Lonely Girl consists of 7 sentences; First Dance consists of 8 sentences; Love Me consists of 11 sentences; Common Denominator consists of 4 sentences; Baby consists of
3 sentences; Stuck In The Moment consists 5 sentences; U Smile consists of

Never Say Never consists of 8 sentences; and Eenie Meenie consists of 5 sentences. Those complex sentences above can be seen in the following table.

"Overboard" 74 Never understood you when you'd say. "Overboard" 75 Oh, I felt like I was doing my part. "Overboard" 76 You kept thinking you were coming up "Overboard" short. 77 It's funny how things change ‘cause now I "Overboard" see, oh. 78 I know it's hard. "Up" 79 Tell me what we've got to fear. "Up" 80 I'm gonna lace you with pearls from every "Up" ocean that we're swimmin' in. 81 Do you do what you did when you. "That Should Be Me" 82 Does he love you the way I can? "That Should Be Me" 83 You said you needed a little time for my "That Should Be Me" mistakes. 84 Did you think that I wouldn't see you out at "That Should Be Me" the movies. 85 You're takin' him where we used to go. "That Should Be Me" 86 It's working 'cause you know that. "That Should Be Me"
65
87 I need to know, should I fight for love or "That Should Be Me" disarm. 88 Knowing that things ain't right. “Pray” 89 I know there's good times behind that pain. “Pray”
90 Hey, can you tell me how I can make a “Pray” change? 91 Am I a sinner 'cause half my dinner is still “Pray” there on my plate? 92 I know there's sunshine beyond that rain. “Pray” 93 I know there's good times behind that pain. “Pray” 94 I pray for all the souls that need a break. “Pray” 95 Can someone tell me how to make a “Pray” change? 96 See I never thought that I could walk “Never Say Never” through fire. 97 I never thought that I could take the burn. “Never Say Never” 98 I never thought that I could feel this power. “Never Say Never” 99 I never thought that I could feel this free. “Never Say Never” 100 There's just no turning back when your “Never Say Never” heart's under attack. 101 Gonna give everything I have 'cause this is “Never Say Never” my destiny. 102 Like Luke with the force when push comes “Never Say Never” to shove. 103 Whenever you knock me down, I will not “Never Say Never” stay on the ground. 104 I wish our hearts could come together as “Eenie, Meenie” one. 105 Let me show you what you're missing, “Eenie, Meenie” paradise.
66
106 Tell me what you're really here for. “Eenie, Meenie” 107 I wish our hearts could come together as “Eenie, Meenie” one. 108 I wish our hearts could come together as “Eenie, Meenie” one. TOTAL 108
From the table of complex sentence, the researcher can conclude that in the song of Justin Justin Bieber’s album My World: The collection contain three kinds of dependent clauses: Adverb, adjective, and noun (as seen on chapter II page 23). The first clause is adverb such as when, where, because, and if. The following sentences are the example of dependent clause with adverb.
a. When I met you girl, my heart went knock. From a song
title of One Time.
b. You’re takin’ him where we used to go. From a song title of
That Should Be Me.
c. I give you little more because I love ya. From a song title
of Love Me.
d. If you let me inside your world, there is gonna be one less
lonely girl. From a song title of One Less Lonely Girl, etc.
The second one is adjective clause who and that, such as you’re who
I’m thinking of from a song title of Favorite Girl, and I understand that it’s meant to be from a song title of Never Let You Go, etc. The last one is the use of noun clause what, such as I’ll show you what you’re worth from a
67
song title of One Less Lonely Girl. The position of noun clause what in this
example is object of the independent clause I’ll show you.
Besides that, the use of comma in this complex sentence is needed.
The comma is a valuable, useful tool in a sentence because it helps the
reader pause in the right places for specific purpose. In this sentence types,
using commas after clauses that come before the main clause, such as ‘cause
ain’t no way, it’s gonna end right from a song title of Stuck In The Moment,
etc.
4. Compound-Complex Sentence
A Compound-complex sentence has at least three clauses, at least
two of which are independent. We can use almost any combination of
dependent and independent clauses. Just be sure that there is at least one
independent clause. (as seen on chapter II page 25).
The compound-complex sentences that used in Justin Bieber’s
album My World: The collection from a song title of Down To The Earth
consists of 2 sentences; Bigger consists of 1 sentences; Baby consists of 2
sentences; Runaway Love consists of 2 sentences; and Overboard consists
of 4 sentences. Those compound-complex sentences found above can be
seen in the following table.
Table 7 Compound-complex sentences found
NO COMPOUND-COMPLEX SONG TITLE 1 I never thought that it'd be easy ‘cause “Down To The Earth” we both so distant now, and the walls are closing in on, and we're wondering
68
how. 2 You tell me this is for the best, so tell “Down To The Earth” me why am I in tears, woah.
3 I swear they look so small from up here “Bigger” ‘cause we're bigger, and love's bigger. 4 I'm sixteen, and I thought that you'd be “Baby” mine. 5 You know that feeling when you leave “Baby” your love, and its right behind you. 6 I'd give it all up for her, but it'll never “Runaway Love” be enough, I won't stop until I find My runaway love. 7 I'd give it all up for her, but it'll never “Runaway Love” be enough, I won't stop until I find My runaway love. 8 It feels like we've been out at sea, oh, “Overboard” so back and forth that's how it seems, and when I wanna talk you say to me. 9 So crazy is this thing we call love, and “Overboard” now that we've got it, we just can't give up. 10 So crazy is this thing we call love, and “Overboard” now that we've got it we just can't give up. 11 I still love you (still love you baby), “Overboard” and you're the only one who can save me. TOTAL 11 .
The use of compound sentence in Justin Bieber’s album My World:
The collection is little than another sentence types like simple, compound,
and complex. The researcher only finds 11 sentences that including
compound-complex sentence. The compound-complex sentence can call as
combination of sentences between simple, compound, and complex. Its
mean that we can use almost any combination of dependent and independent
69
clause with its rules. The most important in compound-complex sentence is
at least have one independent clause. The following is the example.
I swear they look so small from up here ‘cause we're bigger, and love's
bigger. From a song title of Bigger.
From the previous example of compound-complex sentence, we
have some alternative to arrange the sentences. The following are the
example.
1. I swear they look so small from up here ‘cause we’re bigger;
moreover, love’s bigger.
2. ‘cause we’re bigger, I swear they look so small, and love’s
bigger.
3. I swear they look so small from up here ‘cause we're bigger,
and love's bigger.
Punctuate the compound part of a compound-complex sentence
like a compound sentence; that is, use a semicolon or comma combination
(sentence 1), or put comma before a coordinator joining two independent
clauses (sentence 2 and 3). Punctuate the complex part like a complex
sentence. With adverb clauses, put comma after a dependent adverb clause
(sentence 2) but not before it (sentence 3).

Oh, oh, oh
I never thought that it'd be easy 'Cause we both so distant now And the walls are closing in on us And we're wondering how No one has a solid answer Just walking in the dark And you can see the look on my face It just tears me apart
So we fight (so we fight) through the hurt (through the hurt) And we cry, and cry, and cry, and cry And we live (and we live) and we learn (and we learn) And we try, and try, and try, and try
[Chorus] So it's up to you and it's up to me That we meet in the middle On our way back down to earth Down to earth, down to earth On our way back down to earth (Back down to earth, back down to earth) (Back down to earth, back down to earth) (Back down to earth, back down to earth) (Back down to earth, back down to earth)
Mommy you were always somewhere And Daddy I live outta town So tell me how could I ever be normal some how You tell me this is for the best So tell me why am I in tears, woah So far away and now I just need you here
So we fight (so we fight) through the hurt (through the hurt) And we cry, and cry, and cry, and cry And we live (and we live) and we learn (and we learn) And we try, and try, and try, and try
88
[Chorus]
We fell so far away from where we used to be Now we're standing, and where do we go When there's no road, to get to your heart Let's start over again
[Chorus]
I never thought that it'd be easy 'Cause we both so distant now And the walls are closing in on us And we're wondering how.
