So far in our readings of Hamlet, it is evident that young Hamlet seems to be going mad. We have discussed the issue of madness quite a bit, and we have all agreed that different elements of a person’s life can cause him or her to go “mad.” However, we have not talked about how this specific instance of madness has influenced our Modern Entertainment......

the song Never Enough By: Five Finger Death Punch.
This song relates to hamlets dad being killed by his uncle and seeking revenge
" I'm so fed up with everyone around me
No one seems to care
I'm just so far gone and nothing's gonna change
I'll never be the same
It's always do this, do that, everything they want to
I don't wanna live that way
Every chance they get they're always pushing me away "
