Pop Song Structure & Lyrics Analysis

Due: Next lesson

1) Choose a pop song

• What is the structure of your chosen pop song? Use the correct terminology (if not, ‘A’, ‘B’, ‘C’, etc.)

2) Write a paragraph explaining what you think is special about the song lyrics of this song.
Why are they particularly interesting or enjoyable for you? Is it because they…:

• are about an interesting or unusual subject
• tell a story
• are relevant to you & your life
• use rhyme and/or rhythm cleverly
• capture an emotion well
• have interesting meanings (hidden?)
• make you keep finding more in them as you listen, rather than getting bored with them
