Daughtry - Home



Daughtry, active since 2006, is a rock band named after lead singer Chris Daughtry, who was a finalist on American Idol. This song, released in 2007, was probably their biggest hit. 

Temperament that it hits on: Melancholic 

Home portrays Daughtry's feelings toward always being on tour and wanting to come home to his wife. Those two feelings (discomfort with constant change and romantic love) are very typical of melancholics. 

Chris Daughtry is a Christian, and released a studio album called Baptized in 2014. That said, it is little surprise that this song is commonly heard on Christian radio stations (probably with the interpretation that Daughtry is talking to God about his hard life in general and his wish to be with Him in Heaven).

Cinderella - The More Things Change


Cinderella was one of the "tough guy" metal bands from 1983 through 2014. This song, released on the 1990 album Heartbreak Station, came at the peak of the band's success. 

Temperament that it hits on: Choleric 

The More Things Change definitely portrays very choleric feelings towards life and other people. Like hardened cholerics, the singer seems to teach us a "lesson" on life's hard lessons.
