Description

For time immemorial, popular songs have generally consisted of two equally important halves — their music and their lyrics. As music and melody are what are presented so predominantly, the lyrics are often overlooked. In so many ways, this is a tragedy. Lyricism is an art form that encapsulates the emotions, dialogue, and overall messaging of a musical artist's expression. Countless hours of thought and deep introspection go into the words contained in your favorite songs. Yet, most people only know a few lines in each masterpiece. Well, here at Lyristoric, lyrical appreciation is our main focus. Together, we will explore the most beautifully crafted, impactful, and poignant lyrics ever written, and delve into the history around them by exploring the literature written about them and the artists who wrote them at the time they were written. While decoding each line, we'll lift the vails off all metaphors to learn the underlying meanings of these works of art.
