Music! An integral part of our lives. Throughout history the human populous has always been attracted to music. Whether it is part of a ritual, an emotional release, religious reasons, or just listening for pleasure, music has been at the centre of our society. People have always used music to express themselves, and let others into their thoughts. However, they often wonder whether what they are saying has an effect on the listening audience. .
Recently the meaning of the words artists put into their songs looses its significance. Now most of the songwriters substitute the lyrics that mean something or express mood for thoughtless nonsense words. Yes, and they have right to do it. Because these "new" words just sound better with the latest soap-pop hit of the music star. And it not only makes the song sound right but also makes the song so magnetic with its simplicity, so that there's no way you don't go to the music store and buy the new recording.
For that reason most of the people just don't care about the lyrics. And how they can be interested in simple pointless words that mean nothing. And how can they call these words lyric. The lyric comes deep out of author's soul. It expresses his feelings, his thoughts, and his mood. Most of the latest music texts don't! I call them "texts" because they have nothing in common with lyric. So everybody who doesn't appreciate the real value of music listens to it not to experience the artists" feelings but just to dance on the music, entertain, get better mood, get angry or even get asleep. These are the people who just don't care what the artists are singing.
But there is another prospect of the problem that "nobody cares about lyrics". And this problem comes from the grown-ups and the media. They insist that youth don't care about the lyrics in aspect that teenagers don't care about what violence and dirty words in lyrics cause them. They are trying to tell us that the songs" lyrics are awful, disgusting, and violent and because of that these kinds of music affect us bad.
