I have to make a group presentation next week on a scene from Sophacles' Greek tragedy Oedipus Rex. The assignment is that we have to rewrite our assigned scene of the play in modern day fashion. We are doing ours like a soap opera and the last part of our scene is the chorus singing about Oedipus' predicament. Anyway, we thought that it would be easier and more interesting if we found a song that would fit with the theme of this play. My question is, does anyone have any suggestions for a song that would go well with this play? In case any of you do not know what the play is about, in a nutshell, Oedipus unknowingly has killed his biological father and married his mother and had children with her.
