Why is everybody so obsessed? Money can't buy us happiness Can we all slow down and enjoy right now Guarantee we'll be feeling alright" The song, "Price Tag" by Jessie J. has Marxism in it because it talks about how money does not buy everything, especially happiness. The first example of Marxism is when she sings, “…we don’t need your money, money money…” because it says that we don’t need money and she just wants to forget about the price tag on everything because money is not important to her. A Marxist would criticize this song because they want money and think it is important. The second example of Marxism is when she sings, “Money can’t buy us happiness…” It shows that money does not buy happiness. She says the way to happiness is to enjoy right now. A Marxist would again criticize this because they think happiness comes from money. Finally, this is how Marxism is related to the song, “Price Tag” by Jessie J. Works Cited "Price Tag" Lyrics."
