Hello guys‼️welcome to my blog, and today i will explain about What a Song Tells You💐
What Is a Song?
There is probably not a human on earth who does not at least have some sort of vague idea of what a song is. Songs have surrounded humanity for millennia and have served as a way of expressing feelings, wants, hopes, and desires in a melodic way. A song is defined as a set of words or short poems meant to be sung and set to a certain type of music.
Songs consist of many different components: lyrics, verses, refrain, and meter. Lyrics are a group of words that make up a song and are usually broken up into verses. Verses are a grouped portion of a song, which can also be found in poetry. The refrain of a song is the repeated part, usually broken up throughout the song. The meter is the measurement of regularly occurring beats or bars. Songs can have one single verse or many verses and refrains.
Songs are written in a multitude of ways. They can be used as an expression of emotion, such as in love songs dedicated to a certain individual. They can be used as a way of telling a story, as one would find in a song depicting the events of one's childhood. They can even be used as a way of advertising certain products. Songs can have an impact in ways the spoken word simply cannot, which is why they are often used in certain situations.
TYPES OF SONG:
One of the oldest songs in the world was traced back to Syria in around 1400 B.C. Since then, the world has connected through sharing songs from each culture's history. For centuries, songs have been created in countless types of genres. There are folk songs, sea shanties, art songs, lute songs, and more.
1. Folk Songs
Throughout the history of songs, there have not always been opportunities for written lyrics or sheet music. When songs are passed down orally from one generation to another, the style of song is generally referred to as a folk song. Sometimes referred to as traditional songs, folk songs reflect the activities of common people and their lives. At times, folk songs would exist for decades before music scholars or later composers would write them down.
2. Sea Shanties
Sea shanties are another style of song. Sea shanties differ from emotional and heartfelt songs in that they were used in the workplace. They were historically used on sailing ships and consisted of different types of work songs. This helped workers pass time as they completed often laborious and tedious tasks. The rhythm of the song was repetitive and tailored to coordination for tasks. It helped sailors to work in rhythm for hard jobs such as pulling anchors and ropes or taking down and putting up
sails.

Give an example of a song✅
Lirik
I'm familiar with unrequited
I know you got a heart that's undecided
Just like mine, it takes its sweet time
I've been shy to dive into the deep end
'Cause I don't really wanna lose a good friend
But I might find something divine
It's electric every time we touch
I've been livin' for this head rush
But sometimes it's too much
If we never try
How will we know
Baby, how far this thing could go?
Give me a sign
If I'm on your mind
I don't wanna fall in love alone
I wish that I could tell what you were thinkin'
I hate that I slip up when I've been drinkin'
But oh well, I can't help myself
I'm gettin' really tired of this back and forth
Why don't we just give in to this driving force?
I mean, there's somethin' between us
It's electric every time we touch
I've been livin' for this head rush
But sometimes it's too much
If we never try
How will we know
Baby, how far this thing could go?
Give me a sign
If I'm on your mind (you know that you're on my mind)
I don't want to fall in love alone (I don't wanna fall in love alone)
If we never try (I don't want to fall in love alone)
How will we know (without you)
Baby, how far this thing could go? (Just how far this thing will go)
Give me a sign (give me a sign, give me a sign)
If I'm on your mind
I don't wanna fall in love alone, ooh
Fall, I don't wanna fall
I don't wanna fall in love alone (you just need to be right here next to me)
Fall, I don't wanna fall (next to me, next to me)
I don't wanna fall in love alone (I don't wanna live without you baby, anymore)
Fall, I don't wanna fall (anymore)
I don't wanna fall in love alone (I, I, I can't be alone)
Fall, I don't wanna fall
I don't wanna fall in love alone
