The Influence of Lyrics on Songs

The relationship between lyrics and music, that is, the relationship between words and songs, is the first topic encountered in song creation. Singing art is a combination of poetry and music. As the name implies, "Song" occupies a very important position. This "song" can be understood as a poem that can be sung. A good lyric should undoubtedly be a good poem, with poetic artistic conception and aftertaste, and the lyrics should also have their own beauty. Although many lyrics are written specifically for composing music, they are by no means accessories of music. Before composing music and after leaving music, you should have your own independent artistic value, which can give people beautiful enjoyment. Therefore, composers must not treat the lyrics lightly, and it is very important to choose words and handle the lyrics well. The lyrics themselves should be singing. If the lyrics completely rely on the wings of music, the role and character of the lyrics will be reduced. Lyrics are the foundation of song creation. The above-mentioned aesthetic requirements for lyrics are not only what the lyric writers pursue, but also what we songwriters should consider when choosing lyrics. The singing of lyrics is a very important condition for songwriters to choose lyrics. Good lyrics have distinct rhythm, touching tone, catchy, pleasant to listen to, and pay attention to rhyme. Although this kind of singing is only a silent singing before composing, when we read aloud, there will be a singing requirement in our hearts. On the other hand, if there is no singing requirement in mind when reading a lyric, it is difficult to arouse the composer's desire to sing and create. Of course, singing can not only be considered in terms of rhythm, rhythm, beat, sentence pattern, etc., but more importantly, the inner singing method of lyrics, that is, the connotation of poetic music. The richer the connotation of lyrics, the more it can inspire composers to stimulate musical thinking. Some people think that the lyrics must rhyme square. In fact, when composing music, we often encounter such a situation. Although some lyrics are beautiful in appearance and exquisite in rhythm, they can't arouse our * * * sound; Although some lyrics rhyme freely, just like a prose poem, their inner sense of music and singing can touch people's hearts and arouse a strong desire for creation.
