The song More Than This by One Direction connects to the theme of unrequited love in Othello. This song is about loving someone who loves someone else, which makes me think of Roderigo's love for Desdemona. Roderigo will do anything to get Desdemona's attention. He used all his money and trusted Iago to help him win her love, but she does not notice him at all. It was killing him knowing that she married Othello. Roderigo was heartbroken and I think this song helps explain how he feels. The lyrics above from the song express Roderigo feelings toward Desdemona.
