Under Pressure
For this second assignment, you should share your thoughts about the song "Under Pressure" By Freddy Mercury and David Bowie. You can talk about what the song is about if you relate to the song, and if you agree with the message of this great piece of music. I will read your comments as soon as you start sharing.
I couldn´t be more agree with the song’s lyrics, because when we are under the pressure, we aren´t aware about the damage that we can do to the people around us. In my personal opinion I feel identify with the song because when I’ am sitting in a fence I change the way I am and I used to be a little bit bloody, so I say things that I wouldn’t have liked to say, although if I regret about that, the damage is done and the other person will never forget that terrible situation. So I think that we must control ourselves to avoid misunderstandings.
ResponderEliminarThe thing that most bothers me when I’am dancing in the night is that kind of people, who know that you are on the edge of the night and they keep on disturbing you instead of trying to help you, As far as I’m concerned that is unacceptable, we should help us each other. I am agree with what the song says about give love, because I think that the key for whatever iS the LOVE.
Hello Adriana. First of all, I want to congratulate you on your comment. Not only did you write your opinion but also you used the idioms we discussed in class. You did a great job! Regarding your opinion, I see eye to eye with you. Love is all we need as The Beatles once said. Keep on working like this girl. Way to go!
EliminarFor me the song is about the problems that we can find in our lives and feel bad and not know what to do together with all the pressure that we feel for those problems but we should not let that stop us and move on, always expect something good for our future, another message that I understand from the song is that the problems, the pressure, and all those bad moments in life is something that we must accept since it is part of it, learn from them and continue ahead never stop and to feel love for both for the bad moments as for the good moments to learn to love life
ResponderEliminarExcellent answer Gerardo! Acceptance as you said, is a step to reach maturity. Stress is a part of our everyday life. Loving good and bad things is accepting life as is. Black and white, such is life. The key element is our attitude towards it. Bad things happen all the time. The way we deal with our problems is what make us swim or sink.
EliminarFor me the songs talk about the daily pressure that is exerted on human beings, the pace of life so fast that this commercial world demands, a world that in a certain way scares when you realize what it really is and the loss of values that mainly entails love to ourselves and other human beings, and that we must give ourselves another opportunity to overcome this and be happy.
ResponderEliminarI am in agreement with the message that transmits, since we live in a world where they send other less important things than in this case the solirality or the healthy coexistence.
Hi there Beto. I see what you mean. Sometimes we lose our core values when we let stress to take over. Money is not happiness. People get lost in the rat race because of it. A healthy cohexistance as you stated, is plausible as soon as we understand other people's feelings. Great comment Beto!

ResponderEliminarIn my opinion this song has an important message for everyone since it is real that we all live in a society of pressures and stress.
most people have problems in our home, work and any other lifestyle, we must know how to make decisions to reduce any type of obstacle that does not allow us to continue giving the best of us
Sometimes if I feel identified with the song because sometimes I worry about what they say, I'm afraid of making mistakes but I'm starting to control my emotions and taking into account that we are not all pefect and we have the right to make mistake.
Great answer Jhoan! In the first part, you mention a key element. We must learn how to make decisions. I would say, bad decisions are the parents of stress. In the second part, you talked about emotional intelligence. By controlling your emotions, you don't let stress control you. And as you said, we are humans. It is only natural that we make mistakes. Good answer!✌
EliminarI think that the song talks about the pressure and repercussions that this has on our lives, at present stress destroys families, I do not really feel identified with the song, I do not consider living a life under stress and I have not lived a city environment that Take me to feel like that. However listening makes me feel depressed and analyze the context and reason of life nowadays
ResponderEliminarHi Maryeth! I am so glad to hear that. Living under pressure is not an easy thing. You will get that feeling though at some point in your life. I didn't want to make you feel depressed, on the contrary, this is an optimistic song. But it is interesting that you mentioned that. Thanks for sharing!😁
EliminarThe song for me talks about how we react to the pressure we have every day, the fear of the way others perceive us, we always try to please everyone, leaving aside what we want and that makes us start to feel stress, which leads us to stop enjoying the goodness of life and what we are, just by wanting to be seen well. Fear drives us to not be able to stand in front of everyone and be as we really want.
ResponderEliminarAnd I could not be more in agreement with the song about Love, because for me it is very important to be able to excel, and above all to love you without caring about anything.
Hello Sarai. Excellent comments! First of all, you touched on a great point; pleasing everybody else but you is the number one mistake we all make. This feeling drives us nuts! The only person we should care about is ourselves and the ones we love. Then, you wrote about fear which is another key element to understand stress. We are always afraid of what tomorrow will bring. And finally, as you said love can help us all at the end of the day. Great job!
EliminarI think the song tell us much about the stress make it emphasis in family when is separate for blame of work besides the load be a employee and have a workload and the system is very hard with the people, in the part "Pressure pushing down on me
ResponderEliminarPressing down on you no man ask for
Under pressure that brings a building down
Splits a family in two
Puts people on streets" is a grat song.....
Hi there Daniel. You are right. The song talks about broken homes as a result of living under pressure. The system, is always hard on people as you said it. But, I would love to hear your opinion about how you relate to the song. Do you feel the same way?
EliminarI could not agree more with this song, society puts us under pressure, establishing stereotypes, in which you will hardly please people, what one person considers to be good for another will not be. I think that the family is an essential part of the human being, that is where your preparation for your life lies, in which you will learn to be strong, face your first struggles, learn to say what you feel without fear and defend what you want even if you're wrong. This in each of us to contribute something in the lives of others and help them grow, reducing the pressure that society makes us experience and above all do what we really like.
ResponderEliminarHi there Janette. I loved your answer. Stereotypes drive us crazy! We are always fighting to become someone the media has stablished as a role model. But we don't even know who we are. Then you touch on the topic of family as our first environment where we learn to deal with other people. And finally, the support we get from our beloved ones to overcome life. Thanks for sharing I see eye to eye with you on this one.
EliminarCURRENTLY WE SEE TOO MANY THINGS THAT AFFECT THE POPULATION BUT STILL WE DO NOTHING ABOUT FOR FEAR TO BE HURT.
ResponderEliminarTHOUSANDS OF EVENTS HAPPEN BUT NOT TALKING ABOUT THEM TO NOT MAKE PEOPLE AFRAID IT IS BETTER TO HIDE THEM AND THERE ARE SOME THAT ARE BENEFIT FOR POLITICIANS.
A LOT OF PEOPLE LIES OR LIES BY SAYING THAT NOTHING HAPPENS BUT REALITY IS ANOTHER WHEN SEEING IMAGES SO DISTURBING.
WHAT MOST SURPRISES ME IS SEEING CHILDREN WITHIN ALL OF THIS WHEN THEY ARE THOSE WHO CAN STILL DO SOMETHING FOR US AND FOR ALL.
THE SONG EXPRESSES TOO MUCH.
THE FEAR THAT I HAVE IS TO KNOW IF THERE IS STILL A MORNING.
Hi Iris. Well, I agree with you about lies. They are teh basis of an unhealthy society. You talked about distrubing things and I guess you relate those facts with being under pressure. Thanks for sharing.
Eliminarhello the truth seems to me a great song since the message makes known in general how it is that stress affects us from within the family at work and in our environment but for that reason I think it is good to give everything time to be able have a balance
ResponderEliminarThanks for sharing your opinion Arvin.

ResponderEliminarI think it is a very beautiful song and it tells us about people we feel when we are under pressure, which brings out the worst in people, nobody asks to be under pressure but sooner or later you find yourself in a situation in the you have to learn to live some time under pressure and on the other hand you also mention us how love makes you a better person, makes you help other people, makes you care for others, so love is the solution for forget about the stress that pressure makes you feel.
Hi José! You are right, love is all you need. I am glad you liked the song.
EliminarGood night teacher!!! I think that the song has of reason because in these days almost all the people are worry about our environment, and our environment is only work, only study all is about material things, I think that the people is forgetting the important things like family, friends and make things that really enjoy,so I believe that is time to consider the important things and thanks God for everything that we have.
ResponderEliminarHi Karen, you are right! I totally agree we should focus on the things we have. Being afraid of the future causes stress. Thanks for sharing!
ResponderEliminari think that many people works so much and they should take a break, i liked the song because is real , i think that working under pressure does not always end well ,unless you controlyour stress , on bad days you should not drop your goals because of stress that i think we should be happy people :D
ResponderEliminarthe song I liked it very much even though I did not understand what they wanted to convey with the lyrics, I guess I wanted to say that we are all under pressure and therefore we do not know how to act in different situations and that we still need to do things with love for that go well.
ResponderEliminarI think that what the song speaks to us is totally true, I think the problem is because the world lives surrounded by different aspects that influence so that people do not achieve a fullness, which causes them to be stressed or pressured.
