Analysis of Rihanna's song

30.01.2014 …

By Mr Hattais

Hi guys,

today we finished analysing Rihanna's song: No Love Allowed.

Here is what we said:

For her, her ex-boyfriend is like a criminal.
The break-up was very painful for her. She compares it to an emergency.
Her boyfriend was a liar. He was not honest with her.
She was delighted when she was with him even if he hit her.

Now she thinks he was an insensitive criminal. He must go to jail / prison.
She agrees with her mother who disliked him because he didn't listen to her.

Vocab:

Crime

Love / Feelings

bullet
knock to the floor
rebel
die
criminal
jail
murder(er)
critical emergency
it is not allowed

143
cold
tears
care
core
hurt
heart
delighted
foolish
cry
blind
...

Phonetics: Attention à la prononciation anglaise qui rend presque muet le /r/ dans le schéma voyelle+r comme dans / murderer / par exemple.
