My presentation is about two of my favourite songs and lyrics. I want to show you they have something in common.

The first song "Part of Me" is performed by a youngsinger Katy Perry and was written by Perry herself. Thesong is about a young girl who has a problem with her boyfriend. The boy is not an honest one and the girl decides to split up.

The second song "My Way" is presented by famous Frank Sinatra (and lyrics by Paul Anka). The lyrics of "My Way" tell the story of a man who is old,and reflects on his life as death approaches.

Katy Perry starts her song with sad and nervous words:

„Days like this I want to drive awayPack my bags and watch your shadow fade… you chewed me up and spit me outYou took my light, you drained me down”

but …she concludes:

„That was then and … this is now. But you're not gonna break But you're not gonna break my soulmy soul - - - This is the part of me that you're never gonna ever take away from me”

She keeps her integrity and solves the problem … „her way”

Ladies and gentlemen, now listen to the music and enjoy the rhythm and the lyrics …

Days like this I want to drive awayPack my bags and watch your shadow fadeCause you chewed me up and spit me outLike I was poison in your mouthYou took my light, you drained me downThat was then and this is nowNow look at me.

This is the part of me that you're never gonna ever take away from me, noThis is the part of me that you're never gonna ever take away from me, noThrow your sticks and stonesThrow your bombs and your blowsBut you're not gonna break my soulThis is the part of me that you're never gonna ever take away from me, no

AND NOW …AND NOW …

Frank Sinatra starts his calm and quiet lyrics with apparently sad words:„And now, the end is near, And so I face the final curtain.”

but next he continues: „I've lived a life that's full - I've traveled each and every highway… I did what I had to do and more, much more than this, I did it my way.” Sinatra is comfortable with „his way” and the challenges of life he faced. His soul keeps a respectable degree of integrity.

Ladies and gentlemen, now listen to the beautiful music, enjoy the voice of Frank Sinatra and follow the emotional and moving lyrics by Paul Anka …

And now, the end is near, And so I face the final curtain. My friend, I'll say it clear; I'll state my case of which I'm certain.

I've lived a life that's full - I've traveled each and every highway. And more, much more than this, I did it my way.

Regrets? I've had a few, But then again, too few to mention. I did what I had to do And saw it through without exemption.

I planned each charted course - Each careful step along the byway, And more, much more than this, I did it my way.

I want to thank my Daddy. Dad helped me with

manipulating text and pictures and with recording sound

and music in MS PowerPoint.

Also thanks to him I improved my English, I hope.

Yes, there were times, I'm sure you knew, When I bit off more than I could chew, But through it all, when there was doubt, I ate it up and spit it out. I faced it all and I stood tall And did it my way.

I've loved, I've laughed and cried, I've had my fill - my share of losing. And now, as tears subside, I find it all so amusing.

To think I did all that, And may I say, not in a shy way - Oh no. Oh no, not me. I did it my way.

For what is a man? What has he got? If not himself - Then he has naught. To say the things he truly feels And not the words of one who kneels. The record shows I took the blows And did it my way.

Yes, it was my way.
