  2. Song Facts • Released December 1993 • One of his greatest hits • Reached #3 on the Country Billboards in 1994 • Co-written with Jenny Yates

  3. Listen to it Standing outside the fire http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zpg6w3IEcKc

  4. http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/photo/8177127.cms Lyrics We call them cool Those hearts that have no scars to show The ones that never do let go And risk the tables being turned We call them fools Who have to dance within the flame Who chance the sorrow and the shame That always comes with getting burned

  5. But you've got to be tough when consumed by desire 'Cause it's not enough just to stand outside the fire We call them strong Those who can face this world alone Who seem to get by on their own Those who will never take the fall We call them weak Who are unable to resist The slightest chance love might exist And for that forsake it all http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-vopn7sq7wFw/ToKULOrZdfI/AAAAAAAAB24/-Qb_9CKQgps/s1600/DSC02761.JPG

  6. They're so hell-bent on giving ,walking a wire Convinced it's not living if you stand outside the fire Standing outside the fire Standing outside the fire Life is not tried, it is merely survived If you're standing outside the fire There's this love that is burning Deep in my soul Constantly yearning to get out of control Wanting to fly higher and higher I can't abide Standing outside the fire http://www.eroglamour.com/glamour/20120224/fireintheshapeofaheart/www.eroglamour.com-1-fire-in-the-shape-of-a-heart.jpg

  7. Theme “Life is not tried, it is merely survived If you're standing outside the fire” You are just going through the motions if you don’t put yourself out there and risk getting hurt.

  8. Why I chose this song • The message-Don’t be content where you are because you have to take risks to make relationships happen. • This message doesn’t only have to apply to relationships. • - It’s important to live life to the fullest http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-LG7eYPiS16U/TZ8k7FIaxDI/AAAAAAAAAA8/hbBqUSDKbu8/s1600/live-life-to-the-fullest1.jpg

  9. Who is the Speaker? • Someone who believes it is necessary to take risks in relationships. • The speaker is a boy because they are the ones expected to take that risk and start a relationship • Could be any age

  11. Rhyme Scheme • A, B, B, C, A, D, D, C • Adds enjoyment to the song • Helps one to remember the words • Gives the song a flow http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-skPRBOUhVPg/TwbwyZaF3rI/AAAAAAAAAhI/CnKdWNcYN24/s1600/scarecrow.jpg

  13. Compare to Literature • Romeo and Juliet • Romeo has a forbidden love • He had to take a risk to have a relationship with Juliet because of the family feud • He believed that the risk was worth it for the love he felt.

  14. Comparing Romeo and this Song Speaker of this Song Romeo Loved Juliet- a Capulet, This was a big risk Had a love so deep for Juliet he was willing to die • Couldn’t stand outside the fire, not take risks • Had a deep love that he wanted to show

  15. Quote from Romeo and Juliet By: William Shakespeare Juliet: I would not for the world they saw thee here. Romeo: And but thou love me, let them find me here; My life were better ended by their hate, than death prorogued, wanting of thy love. http://www.significancemagazine.org/SpringboardWebApp/userfiles/sig/image/AbdelUpload/William_Shakespeare_1609.jpg http://i118.photobucket.com/albums/o110/revmyspace/freegraphics/music2/Garth_Brooks_Wallpaper.jpg
