Why does most songs are about love?
Because Love is one of the few universal human characteristics. We all love something or someone.
Its something everyone can relate to.
I dont know but I guess it moves alot of pepole, cause all these songs.........I have wounderd about this.
Everything is in some way related to love.
I have thought about that also...it seems a lot of love songs are mass produced by the record companies..cause the masses eat it up..
but thats like everything in some way is related to death. I think it eaisier for pepole to writee about loveQuote:

I think it would be difficult for any artist not to create a song about love.
It's something everyone can relate to.. people want to listen to things they can agree with. Love, Weed, Rebel songs etc.
I'm a composer/producer so I've made a little bit of everything.. it's usually how I'm feeling.. so I guess most people are in love.. or feeling love when they write.
I first noticed this with Madonna, just song after song after song about love love LOVE. It's pathetic, the theme has been so worn out it's beyond cliche. Any artist should be ashamed to be so lacking in creativity and cop out with a 27 billionth love song. It just shows they really have nothing to say, nothing to create.
Sex, drugs and murder are easier to write about when writing songs.
My thoughts exactly... thats why i started this thread...Quote:

They have a song about that, too. "Love Stinks".
love is one of the few universally recognized themes that most everyone feels good about. most folks are attracted to what feels good so if you're a song writer and you want to sell your product you'll write about what makes the masses feel best. for the most part it's about nothing more than marketing.

Love goes hand in hand with hate. Music is about loving something, or hating something. Which is stronger though, ah that is the question. :stoned:
That'd be because Coelho, its writer, is a native speaker of Portuguese, not English. I think he does a wonderfully good job of communicating with the rest of us considering that fact.Quote:

Because love is one of the strongest human emotions when truly expressed with meaning. So as long as music has been around, and as many musicians as there are, that's a lot of songs. Everyone experiences it a little differently so people try to write about it differently. The majority of the world and music market likes to only hear songs that make them feel good and love songs do just that, also back when the record industries were first getting mainstream certain topics considered possibly taboo, offensice, or to vulgar were forbidden from being sung about so many old classic songs tend to be about love becase in some senses it was the only thing allowed to be written about. It's an easy thing to write about that everyone can relate to in some way...:thumbsup:
I heard this on the radio a few weeks back.
Researchers looked at the past so many years No .1 Hits, and found several common words that feature in top songs. So they come up with a list of 'power' words, as it were.
What that list is, I cannot remember. So I guess this post is pretty worthless, lol.
