Sleepless Nights

The introduction to Sleepless Nights draws the audience in and is an appropriate way to start the audio. The background music in the beginning is excellent but perhaps a bit distracting because it is the same background music played in the recent film, Little Miss Sunshine. Sam Webster?s piece illustrates the life of senior high school student who isn?t getting enough rest. This is totally relatable without being too general. Sleepless nights, is a very interesting piece delivered with honesty but at times sounds too much like a reading instead of a monologue. Webster goes into great detail about his late nights and how his lack of sleep affects him negatively. The music at the end is a plus because the title of the piece is within the lyrics. Overall, Sleepless Nights is a pretty good piece and even if you aren?t a senior you can find at least some of what Webster is saying to be true.
