Don't Stop Believing- Journey-[|Lyrics] Last Resort- Papa Roach-[|Lyrics] Can't Stop Lovin You- Van Halen-[|Lyrics]

In Catcher in the Rye, Holden is feeling hurt so far in the book. I chose three songs to reference how Holden feels in the book. First I chose Don't Stop Believing.I chose this song because I feel Holden is giving up with his problems and feels as though he needs to run away. The next song I chose is Last Resort because Holden is going to New York. He feels like he has to run away because he can't take the situation he is in with Jane and his friends. In a way running away is his "last resort". The final song I chose is Can't Stop Lovin' You. I chose this song because Holden has strong feeling for Jane. Holden can't stop feeling this way about Jane. It keeps him up at night and as much as he tries he can't stop thinking about her.

I believe of my three songs Holden would enjoy Last Resort at his point in the story. I believe this because I feel it would encourage him to continue what he is doing and stay in New York.
