Importance of lyrics


Importance of lyrics

 There are a few main reasons why lyrics are important, the main reason for having lyrics is because it helps the audience to engage with the song, for example for lyrics could relate to a current situation that the viewer is having at that moment in time. This could also help the viewer as the song could be about a breakup and because the viewer can relate it may make them feel better about it. Another reason for lyrics is it helps the narrative, this means that the lyrics help he storyline that is going on in the background, and it helps the audience understand what is going on through lyrics and narrative. Moreover, lyrics also help set the scene, for example in James Blunt’ song called ‘beautiful’, the lyrics at the start help set the scene and atmosphere for the audience. The last reason for importance of lyrics is it help to convey a message to the audience in the sense that the lyrics could be all about love and how it hurts people so the message/morale of the song is not to fall in love.
