Lyrics, class, and what the language used in the songs we listen to tells about us.

Hi,

I'm doing a communications and culture investigation- looking at the cultural context of music, and more specifically the language within particular songs and genres.

I would really like your opinion on how the lyrics to peoples' favourite songs reflect their background, class, identity, etc.

For example, do you think restricted language (worRAB and phrases that only make sense to a particular subculture) used within a song reflects a working class fan base/audience? does syrabollic or heavy use of imagery suggest a middle- high class audience?

The more you can develop it the better!! Really interested to know what you think.

Thanks

I think I will attempt to makethat this weekend. And that would make sence, if the whole cake were jello it wouldnt be cake. Just a bunch of jello shaped like cake.

Sorry to the thread maker, but I know you just want some answers then you will never return here again so I dont care that this thread has gone to ****.
 
lol for a second I thought Yukon Cornelius was the OP and then this would have been very, very cruel.

But yeah, jello cake is great. But not nearly as good as Boston Creme Pie. Yum.
 
Can't say I really had much hope.. was a pretty random question, and to be fair jello cake sounRAB much more interesting.

I take it jello is jelly? (english jelly)
 
You would be better going onto yahoo answers or similar. rabroad is a precocious beast at best and rarely likes to help people out whose only intention is to use our forum like a public survey :D
