[00:02] the barren earth, the sunset turns from tea to wine. Sounds beautiful, poetic, lovely imagery. What's the problem? The problem imagery. What's the problem? The problem is that there's no person in this scene.
[00:17] It's nice imagery. It's evocative. But watch the shift that happens by simply watch the shift that happens by simply adding in a specific pronoun that puts a person in this scene. He looks across the barren earth as sunset turns from
[00:32] tea to wine. And the shift for me was really one of now observing someone observing this sunset. I also started wondering who is this person? So adding questions for us as the listener because we've been introduced to a character
[00:47] that we know nothing about yet. So, we feel the effect there of bringing the pronoun in early, but we can also have the description come in and then delay the introduction of the pronoun. So, we could have across the barren earth, the
[01:00] sunset turns from tea to wine, and I wondered if I'd ever see her again. In either of these examples, there is very quickly the introduction of the specific point of view of the lyric. We're not waiting around as
[01:15] lyric. We're not waiting around as listeners to find out whose perspective listeners to find out whose perspective is this song from.
