Hi, I have an english project due very soon,and i need some help on it. I'm supposed to choose one scene from Macbeth and choose a song to go with it.It can be any song i want. I'm having trouble with this because i can't of which song to choose for which scene. It can relate musically or lyrically,as long as they coincide. Can somebody please help me? Like name me some songs and say why they relate to the scene? Thank you so much.

Okay, I'm in a rush so I'm unsure about the scene, but there is a scene where Macbeth comes to a point of self recognition and he realises he has nothing a respected man should have (if i can find the scene i would, or someone else may be able to tell you it), but you could use the song by Metallica - sad but true. The lyrics go something like this :

"I'm the one who cares
they
they betray
I'm your only true friend now
they
they'll betray
I'm forever there
..
I'm your dream, make you real
I'm your eyes when you must steal
I'm your pain when you can't feel
sad but true

I'm your truth, telling lies
I'm your reasoned alibis
I'm inside open your eyes
I'm you".

the scene where Lady MacBeth persuades her husband to kill the king...a song for that might be.... Jay-Z - "98 these streets is mine" the corus goes something like this

i done came up
put my life on the line
soaked the game up
now its my time to shine
time to change up
no more second in line
98 these streets is mine
