The Perfect Song pt. 2

-
Hello everyone! Back again with me in parallel- blog! Today I will post about one story--yup just one for listening, and choose one song will suitable with the story like my last post. And because today just one story, I think it will be very short. Ok.. Here we go!

The story title is The Myth of Hercules: 12 Labors in 18-bits from youtube and the channel is TED-Ed. The length of the video is about 7 minutes, specifically 7 minutes 51 seconds. The story is about the myth of Hercules and the 12 labors. Hercules is son of Zeus and he is hated by Hera because he is born and being her husband’s son. So, Hercules go to the Oracle of Delphi who told him the path to atonement lay with his cousin, King Eurystheus of Tiryns, a favorite of Hera’s. Then when Hercules meet the King, he gives Herculas 12 task wich must be done. If you are interested with the story, you can watch it here, or just click the video below.



And for the song, I will choose Unstoppable by Sia. You can watch here, or play the video below. 




Here is the part of the song will fit with the story.

+×+

I put my armor on, show you how strong how I am
I put my armor on, I'll show you that I am

I'm unstoppable
I'm a Porsche with no brakes
I'm invincible
Yeah, I win every single game
I'm so powerful
I don't need batteries to play
I'm so confident
Yeah, I'm unstoppable today
Unstoppable today
Unstoppable today
Unstoppable today
I'm unstoppable today

+×+

I think this song really fitting with the story especially the part when Hercules should do the impossible test and he didn't look hesitate to di the test, and yeah he pass. Even he get two more test—the king considered the two test is invalid because he got help, but he still pass the two task.

Well.. That's all for today's post, hope you enjoy it and thanks for visiting and reading my blog. Stay healthy and stay safe everyone! See you on my next post, bye~

Because when I should speak in English, sometimes I'm confused how to answer even though I understand what they are talking about or what they ask. Sometimes I a...
