Suggests , Lyrics Have Gotten , Simpler Over Time.\r\nAccording to a recent study, the lyrics \r\nof modern-day music have become more \r\nrepetitive over the course of the last 40 years. .\r\n'Newsweek' reports that the study found \r\nEnglish-language songs have become not only \r\nmore repetitive but also simpler over time.\r\nMusic is ubiquitous in our everyday lives, and lyrics play an integral role when we listen to music. , Study authors, via 'Newsweek'.\r\nResearchers looked at lyrics of over 12,000 English-\r\nlanguage songs across a number of genres, including rap, \r\ncountry, rock and pop, released between 1980 and 2020.\r\nThe complex relationships between lyrical content, its temporal evolution over the last decades, and genre-specific variations, however, are yet to be fully understood, Study authors, via 'Newsweek'.\r\nThe findings suggest that lyrics became easier \r\nto understand and the number of different \r\nwords used in the songs also decreased. .\r\nIn this work, we investigate \r\nthe dynamics of English lyrics \r\nof Western, popular music over \r\nfive decades and five genres, \r\nusing a wide set of lyrics descriptors,

lyrics has also changed in the past four decades.\r\nWe confirm previous analyses \r\nshowing that the emotion described \r\nby lyrics has become more negative \r\nand that lyrics have become more
