4. Jumper- Although the lyrics of the song itself do not seem to fully pertain to the book, if you ponder the idea of the song, it makes a lot of sense how I thought captures Holden’s character well.
“I wish you would step back from that ledge my friend.”
This entire song is saving someone from jumping of a “ledge” which very much relates to one of the main themes in the book. What is Holden? What was did he say he want to be? The Catcher in the Rye. It’s the name of the book! Holden wants to save little kids from falling of a "cliff," which symbolizes the path to adulthood
