Answer:

I think that there are such a wide variety of musicians and generas that It can be hard to tell, but when talking about pop music I think the answer would be yes. Pop music today dosnt rely on its content as much as the beat and the flow. For example in the song, "shape of you", by Ed sheeran we have the lyrics,

"I'm in love with the shape of you,

push and pull like a magnet do."

Here we can see though holding a basic message and not being grammatically correct, it followes a very strict ryme scheme and syllable count. In each line there are 4 meters or exactly 8 syllables. We can see this pattern again in the song "", by the Jonas Brothers, in this lyric,

"I've been dancing on top of cars,

and stumbling out of bars

......

You're the medicine and the pain,

the tattoo inside my brain"

We can see here the lyrics follow a A A B B rhyme scheme, and have 8 syllables and then 7.

(sorry about spelling)

Answer:

A. alliteration

Explanation:

Alliteration

Alliteration is the repetition of the same consonant sound, such as many Mondays, or dazzling dream. This type of sound repetition can occur at the beginning, middle, or end of the word.

The traditional folk song “Shenandoah” is a good example of a lyric poem. It does not tell a story, but it does express the writer’s feelings.

Shenandoah

Shenandoah, I long to hear you,

Away, you rolling river,

Oh, Shenandoah, I long to hear you,

Away, I’m bound away,

‘Cross the wide Missouri.

Shenandoah, I love your daughter,

Away, you rolling river,

I’ll take her ‘cross the rolling water,

Away, I’m bound away,

‘Cross the wide Missouri.

Shenandoah, I long to hear you,

Away, you rolling river,

Oh, Shenandoah, I long to hear you,

Away, I’m bound away,

‘Cross the wide Missouri.

Refrain

A refrain is a line or group of lines repeated throughout a poem. A refrain can be

a line or two of verse that comes at the end of a stanza; or

a stanza that is repeated regularly throughout the poem.

In musical terms, the repeated lines sung after a stanza are called a chorus.

Rhythm

To put it into musical terms, rhythm is the beat of poetry. Because there is no drum or bass to define the beat of a poem, it is done through the choice and arrangement of words.

As you know, certain words or syllables of words are stressed when you speak. The pattern of stressed words and syllables found in a lyric poem helps build its rhythm. The rhythm pattern in poetry is called meter.

Before you go on, try this little exercise. Think of your favorite song again. Write the first verse of lyrics down on paper. Now, here is the hard part. Try to forget the music that the lyrics are set to and speak the words as a poem.

As you do so, underline the syllables that are stressed. This will show you the rhythm within the words, not just in the sound of the music. When you are done, you will have analyzed a piece of poetry for rhythm.

Rhyme

As you know, words that rhyme end with a similar sound. Rhyme and time, beat and heat, and friends and trends are all examples of rhyming words.

“Mary Had a Little Lamb” has only two rhyming words. Both come at the end of a line of verse.

As in rap lyrics, the use of rhyming in lyric poetry can be very elaborate. As you will see in “The Raven,” rhyming words can come at the end of lines of verse (end rhyme), or they can be located within one or more lines of verse (internal rhyme).
