Harry Nilsson- Good Old Desk

  • S-desk, O-1960s America, A- middle-aged Americans, P- to extol importance of dependability, S-9-5 office worker, T- cheerful and comfortable
  • He is talking about how important dependability is, even in small ways, to his everyday life.
  • Evidence of religiosity as the message: "To keep my hopes alive"- Nilsson believes that God has the power to fulfill hopes. "A giant of all times"- God is portrayed as being immense, omnipotent, and timeless. "My old desk isn't picturesque"- God cannot be seen and thus isn't pretty or visually pleasing.
