Transcript: Brave New World .vs. "Brave New World" Dying swans twisted wings, beauty not needed here Lost my love, lost my life, in this garden of fear I have seen many things, in a lifetime alone Mother love is no more, bring this savage back home Wilderness house of pain, makes no sense of it all Close this mind dull this brain, Messiah before his fall What you see is not real, those who know will not tell All is lost sold your souls to this brave new world A brave new world, in a brave new world A brave new world, in a brave new world In a brave new world, a brave new world In a brave new world, a brave new world Dragon kings dying queens, where is salvation now Lost my life lost my dreams, rip the bones from my flesh Silent screams laughing here, dying to tell you the truth You are planned and you are damned in this brave new world A brave new world, in a brave new world A brave new world, in a brave new world In a brave new world, a brave new world In a brave new world, a brave new world A brave new world, in a brave new world A brave new world, in a brave new world In a brave new world, a brave new world In a brave new world, a brave new world Dying swans twisted wings, bring this savage back home The song "Brave New World" by Iron Maiden, has very strong similarities to the book Brave New World by Aldous Huxley. LINES OF THE SONG THAT RELATE TO THE BOOK... 1."beauty not needed here"- In the story, looks do not matter, as you are born into your class, and there's no moving away from that. There is a lack of competition amongst people, so looks do not play a big role in this story. 2. "lost my love, lost my life, in this garden of fear"- Within the book, you are not given a choice of your life; your career is chosen for you. You lack the choice of love, as it does not exist in this story. The garden of fear represents the Brave New World, that they've lost love and life to. 3. "I have seen many things in this lifetime alone"- This can be related to that Bernard Marx has seen life completely different than the others, and that makes him alone in this world. 4. "mother love is no more, bring this savage back home"- This being related to the story, is true because in the book, there are no "mothers" to love. When they venture into New Mexico with the savages, most want to return home, to what they know. 5. "close this mind, dull this brain"- This line refers to how people's minds and creativity is gone, they can't just roam their minds. Their brain is dulled so they do not think like Bernard Marx does. When someone begins to think that way, a dose of soma relives them of this, and really does dull their brain. 6. "what you see, it's not real, those who know, will not tell"- This is how we believe Mustapha is. He knows how the world really once was, but he doesn't tell. He wants everyone to believe the world they live in now, is all they should know of, even though it's not a "real" society, and how the world used to be. 7. "all is lost, sold your soul to this Brave New World"- The people in this world, lack individuality and self-being; their souls. To live in a Brave New World, you must be willing to sell your soul, to make that society work. 8. "silent screams laughing here, dying to tell you the truth"- Whenever someone notices something wrong, they almost get a notion of saying something about it, but they know not to. They resort to a dose of soma, to relieve them of these "thoughts" and remain laughing and happy, like the line in the song states. 9. "you are planned and you are damned in this Brave New World"- In the tale of Brave New World, literally, you are planned. They begin this process in the hatchery, and plan which class you'll be in, your career, and everything about you. Damned you are, in this World, because this where you must remain. Stuck in a lifeless society, with a lack of individuality. We conclude that this song is an accurate portrayal of the book Brave New World. By: Josh Chance Jovi Antonio Anthony and Korey.
