THE MESSAGE AND THE LYRICIST!
Features in Today's Topic will include:
-Introduction:
A quote from a secular Philosopher:
"...Let me Make the Music of a Nation, and I'll care not who makes its laws..."
-It begins with A Purpose!
The First question and one that should resonate through the lyricists thought, when he sets out to write: why this lyrics? Today, it is almost as though, songwriters are meant to write from a vacuum and to fill up space; but does our common quote not say: "when the purpose of a thing is unknown abuse is inevitable..."?
-The Centrality of Lyrical Message
As Important as the purpose is the CENTRAL THEME. Now what is the Central theme? What is the Heart of the lyricists message, or better still what should be the heart of a lyricists message? Is this an open subjective debate? Should there be some objectivity even though, the expressions be subjective?
-Giving What You Don't Have? Lyrics & Real life experience...
Where we are Today at least most largely... Is Entertainment excuse for shallow lyricism? Deep but not experience based song writing... Must the experience necessarily be first hand?
-Having, but somehow unable to give...
This brings us to, a perhaps most neglected department and person of lyricology: the narration and the narrator... Who they are...how it works...when that's the idea...
-Building the Message Cycle...
The Extensity and Intensity of the message depends on its source and its ruminatory system... This is where the building process also begins, and more than any other factor this determines the length of time, content and context of the message...
-The Message and The Messenger!
Now your message is either for/unto your salvation, or it is for/unto your judgement... The lyricists controls a lot not only about his listeners mindset-formation, but even much more, he plays a major part in what becomes cultures and norms, ideologies and standards obtainable...
