In this podcast episode, Ben and Marijn explore poetic devices in modern songs. They discuss metaphors, like Adele's "Rolling in the Deep" representing being completely involved in a relationship. They also talk about similes, such as Bruno Mars' "Grenade" comparing love to a grenade. Alliteration is highlighted in Lizard's "Truth Search" and Ed Sheeran's "Shape of You." They mention how Lana Del Rey's "Summertime Sadness" creates vivid imagery, and Lorde's "Royals" contrasts reality with pop culture. They conclude by reminding listeners to find poetry in their favorite songs. Welcome to Music's Mind, the podcast where we dive deep into the world of song lyrics to uncover the poetic devices that make them timeless. I'm Ben, your host for today's episode. And I'm Marijn, today we're exploring 8 fantastic modern songs and highlighting the poetic devices that make their lyrics stand out. Ready to get started? Our first poetic device is a metaphor, where a word or phrase is applied to an object or action to which it is not literally applicable. The standard example is Adele's Rolling in the Deep. In this song, Adele sings... She uses Rolling in the Deep as a metaphor for being completely involved or committed in a relationship. Another vivid example comes from Billie Eilish's Ocean Eyes. She sings... The Ocean Eyes metaphorically represents deep and captivating eyes. Next we have Simmel, which is a direct comparison using like or as. Let's delve into Bruno Mars' Grenade. He sings... These comparisons highlight the extent of his willingness to sacrifice for love. Another example is in Taylor Swift's Red. She sings... She sings... This symbol captures the exhilarating yet ultimately futile nature of a passionate but doomed relationship. Moving on to Alliteration, which is the repetition of the same consonant sounds as the beginning of words in a sentence or phrase. A great example is in Lizard's Truth Search. In the line... The repetition of the G-sound draws attention to the iconic statement about man's behavior. Another example is Ed Sheeran's Shape of You. The line... Uses the repetition of the B-sound to create a catchy and memorable phrase. Imogen uses vivid and descriptive languages to create mental pictures. Let's explore Lana Del Rey's Summertime Sadness. The line... Paints a vivid picture of a passionate farewell evoking strong emotions and visuals. Another example is in Lorde's Royals. She sings... This imagery highlights the contrast between her reality and the glamorous lives depicted in pop culture. That wraps up today's episode of The Poet's Play, Music's Mind. We hope you enjoyed our exploration of poetic devices in these modern songs. Remember, poetry can be found everywhere, even in the lyrics of your favorite tunes. Be sure to tune in next time as we dive into more songs and uncover the poetry within them. Thanks for listening. Happy listening! you
