Do You Know Those Lyrics?
I can barely understand what the heck a lot of lyrics are when I first listen to a song. I basically just listen for the usual curse words before I proclaim the song worthy to be played in front of kids.
But, I’ve recently realized that I don’t go far enough. Take for instance the song Crank Dat by Soulja Boy. Simple song about Superman & dancing? Not quite. Like a lot of songs, words might have a much different meaning to a different audience.
Before we start just playing songs that sound okay, it’d be a good idea to not only listen to the words, but to ask what those words might mean. The Urban Dictionary is a great resource for that. You might be surprised!
