Macbeth Mix Tape

Witches Brew- David Casper

"There in the darkness, what I saw just blew my mind

Under a cloak of black

And a pointed witch's hat

I saw a face that made a chill run down my spine"

Act 1

We selected this song because it summarizes what happens and what initiates all of act 1; the prophecy from the 3 witches in the dark room to Macbeth and Banquo. Macbeth hears voices in the dark and demands to know who they are, "Speak, if you can. What are you?"(Act1, scene 3). After he speaks, the witches reveal the prophecy and Macbeth reveals what he felt during the experiance. The lyric from the song saying; "There in the darkness, what I saw just blew my mind" can be correlated with what Macbeth probally felt during this; Macbeth sees "face(s) that made a chill down my(Macbeth's) spine"

Coldplay,

Viva La Vida-

"One minute I held the key

Next the walls were closed on me

Act 2

We selected this song because is talks about what happens and what initiated in act 2; the death of king Duncan, The song says "One minute I held the key/Next the walls were closed on me" and this could seen as a to say that Duncan had been crowned king and he held all the power. However, Macbeth crushes his power and murders him. The walls being closed on him refers to Duncan having no other way out. He is in the way of Macbeth becoming king and Macbeth did not hesitate to get rid of him.

Tiger Army,

Ghost of Memory-

"Aching in my heart, chaos in my mind

This place is poison to my soul

Can't take much more, I'm losing control"

Act 3

We chose this song because it talks about being hanuted by past memories. In supersttions, a person could be tormented by a memory of a person who has passed away, and ussualy the being doing the haunting was wronged. In act three, Macbeth is having a party with his guests and decides to toast to the memory of Banquo. Macbeth's guilty consicence causes him to start hallucinating and sees the ghost of Banquo. Macbeth starts to act up and refuses to accompany his guests to dinner because there are no empty spaces and Banquo was "taking up" the last one. Lady Macbeth tries to calm him down by telling him that "This (the ghost) is a painting of your (Macbeth's) fear" Lady Macbeth doesn't know whats going on, but she is determined to watch out for her husband no matter what. A verse in the song that relates to the quote is "Aching in my heart, chaos in my mind/I'm losing control." Macbeth is out of control. He murdered his best friend and his guilt is too much for him.

YNW Melly- Murder on my mind

"I wake up in the morning, I got murder on my mind"

Act 4

We picked "murder on my mind" by YNW Melly because in Act 4 Macbeth murdered Macduff's family , quite literally having murder on his mind. He kills Macduff's family since he saw them as a threat to his throne. He says 'his wife, his babes, and all unfortunate souls/That trace him in his line."

Heartless

By: Kanye West

"How could you be so cold as the winter wind when it breeze yo"

Act 5

Explanation

We chose this quote because, Macbeth shows no remorse for the death of his wife and said maybe if she had died tomorrow he would have time to grieve for her. The verse in the song that describes Macbeth is "So cold as the winter wind How could you be so heartless." Macbeth lost everything he had including his emotions because he did everything Lady Macbeth told him to.
