Another new category - a specialised form of poetry. Lyrics can be studied from an academic perspective. For example, some lyrics can be considered a form of social commentary. Lyrics often contain political, social and economic themes as well as aesthetic elements, and so can connote messages which are culturally significant. These messages can either be explicit or implied through metaphor or symbolism. Lyrics can also be analyzed with respect to the sense of unity (or lack of unity) it has with its supporting music. Analysis based on tonality and contrast are particular examples.

The original ‘Mother of Mine’ is a song written by Bill Parkinson and was made famous by Neil Reid who sang it on ‘Opportunity Knocks’ winning the competition in 1971. This is my version, just in time for Mother’s Day (in UK, 18th March) it was one of my mum’s favourite songs. (Hope I’m not infringing any copyrights as these are my own lyrics and I’m not making money from them.)
