Sweet Disposition

The song I am analyzing is Sweet Disposition by The Temper Trap. This song is very repetitive in many different ways. There is anaphora in two different sections of the song, the first being when the song says


"A moment of love

A dream

A laugh

A kiss

A cry

Our rights

Our wrongs"

A is repeated at the beginning of each of these lines creating anaphora of the word/letter A. Anaphora is also used in the many sections of the song when it says "won't stop till its over/we surrender (x4)." The anaphora in this song creates emphasis on certain parts of the song. There is also assonance of ō in the song. For example, "Sweet disposition

Never too soon

Oh, reckless abandon
Like no one's watching you."

The repetitions of these vowel sounds creates a more low sound in the song and helps the song flow better together.
