Act 1 Scene 3 Of Julius Caesar Act 3

Act 1, Scene 3: “Hail Caesar” by AC DC.
”Hail Caesar” by AC DC is the best fit for Act 1, Scene 3 of Julius Caesar.In the beginning of scene three, Caesar was talking a group of citizens, but a soothsayer was trying to get his attention. The first lyric in the song says, “Swingin' in the chariot /around and around we go/The senators rehearse the tale/ Watch out Caesar.” The soothsayer's warning Caesar of the ides of March, just like it says the song “Watch out Ceaser”. Next,Cassius and Casca are talking about the conspiracy, they are planning. Later in the song it says,“around and around we go/ the senators rehearse their tale/ starring in the coliseum.” In this point of the play Cassius is trying to get Casca to join the rebellion ,

She tells him not to go to the Capitol that day. The first lyic of ths song says,“The truth is in the eyes/Cause the eyes don't lie, amen/Remember a smile is just/A frown turned upside down.”Calpurnia falls to the ground and begs Caesar not to go, and Caesar can see it in her eyes that she really means it, just like when it says “The truth is in the eyes/Cause the eyes don't lie." After he agrees to Calpurnia’s wish, Caesar’s servant comes in and re interprets her dream into the Romans worshipping Caesar, not killing him. But this man is a conspirator, and what he is saying is not true.“Smiling faces, smiling faces sometimes/They don't tell the truth, uh/Smiling faces, smiling faces/Tell lies and I got proof.”These lyrics are proving my point! Not all stories, or interprets of dreams are true. In other words, don’t believe everything you hear.In the end, Caesar has the choice of either risking his life and going to the Capitol, or staying home and basically refusing the crown. Well, you know which decision he ends up making. Another lyric of the song says,“ I'm telling you beware/Beware of the pat on the back/It just might hold you back.”Caesar wants the crown, and we all know that his death is worth the chance of becoming the ruler of Rome. Like the

Brutus gets a note saying that Cassius is mad at him, they are fighting about the way the war should be won. The first lyric of the song says,“There's a humming in the restless summer air /And we're slipping off the course that we prepared / But in all chaos, there is calculation.” These lyrics belong here because they are the perfect representation of what's happening to them, there is tension between the two as said in the lyrics.Brutus and Cassius decide to settle their dispute by sharing all their feelings.Later in the song it says,“They lose their minds for us / And how it plays out / Now we're in the ring / And we're coming for blood.”Cassius feels so bad about what he's done to Brutus and how they are losing their friendship, so in his mind the only answer is suicide . However, that's just what Anthony wants he’s lead him to this thinking, thus my choice of song. Brutus gets more mad news, Titinius and Messala bring news that Anthony has put 100 senators to death also that portia has died. The chorus says, “Glory and gore go hand in hand / That's why we're making headlines (Oh! Oh!) / You could try and take us (oh-oh) / But victory's contagious.”The conspirators victory did not come without blood as we can see here , the triumvirate put to death 100 senators which is the same thing as glory and gore go hand in hand.
