Lyrics In A Song Can Impact Our Lives.
What if I told all of you I had found something that could transport all of you
back in time? No, I’m not talking about a backyard cardboard time machine –
although that would be cool. What if I told you that the superpower we’re
talking about is music? Yep. Music. And what if I told you while you’re being
transported back in time, you are also experiencing the mental health
benefits of music?
Have you ever been jamming out to your favourite playlist when that one
song comes on all of a sudden? Immediately, you are back with your friends
on summer vacation, windows rolled down, singing at the top of your lungs,
cheeks sore from smiling so big.
Music has long been an effective way to communicate to the masses, and
lyrics have played a massive role. Scholars have found instrumental music.
However, evidence that emotions can be influenced by purely only a few
studies exploring music and emotion have included lyrics.
Firstly, lyrics are not as often studied as music, although they are often
partners. Music preference and engagement differ from person to person and
most likely from season to season or perhaps from day to day. But it is
undeniable that the majority of songs on popular radio, nominated for
Grammys, and the average music collection have words that accompany the
music. These words, or lyrics, add something powerful to the songs we listen
to, and the field is rich with the possibility for research on lyrics. Yip Harburg,
a popular America n song lyricist, most known for “Somewhere over the
rainbow” and “It’s only a Paper Moon” described his view on lyrics, “Words
make you think and music makes you feel.
Considering the definition of lyrics as, “words placed to a melody” it would be

impossible to talk about lyrics without talking about music. They support each
other and work together to create one experience, an experience that would
not be the same with one aspect missing.
At DiveThru, we understand the power of words. Lyrics are no different. Have
you ever stopped in your tracks because it felt like the lyrics you just heard
were taken straight from your soul?? Have you felt better understood by the
words in a song than by actual human beings? Ok ok, we know that the
words in the song were written by actual human beings but you get the point.
Lyrics allow us to connect because they often describe what we’re feeling
better than we can. In the same way that is writing out your feelings in a
journal helps to process them, listening to music can help you make sense of
your emotions. Often, you might not even realize what you feel until you hear
it sung back to you. Then, suddenly, it all makes sense.
Over time, we know music and lyrics have become a part of every society.
The lyrics in a song can often hold a great deal of power over our emotions.
The lyrics of a song can be very emotional, and often times we are influenced
by the lyrics in a song to a great extent. A good example of this would be the
song "Let It Go" from Disney's Frozen. In the song, the lyrics are sang by the
character Elsa, and they are very emotional. Elsa is singing about how she
no longer wants to be controlled by her fear of the public, and how she wants
to be free. The lyrics in the song are so emotional that they often have an
impact on our lives.
Yes, music has been a great asset to our lives and is scientifically proven to
have a very powerful effect on the brain of any living being. Some modern
research has shown that music can help in various parts or aspects of the
brain, including some special benefits like reducing pain, stress relief,
memory loss problems, and various brain injuries.
According to some researchers, music can stimulate many areas of our brain
in a good way, thus helping us with various types of recovery and treatment
procedures. Let us look at some of how music can help us in the healing and
stimulation process of the human brain.
Some studies have proven that listening to the music of a patient’s choice
can reduce pain and increase functional mobility significantly. They believe
that music has the power to ease many pains as listening to it triggers
opioids, which are the natural pain relievers of our body—various types of
drug in taking by the patients decreases while listening to their favourite
music or songs.
Depending on the various types of music you listen to, relaxing music can
reduce stress by decreasing our cortisol levels, the special hormone that
releases from stress.
Music has a great impact on our memory.
Studies regarding the relation of music with the memory recall process had
increased for many years when those types of research first emerged.
Listening to certain music has the power to take your mind in the past
timeline of some decades within an instant. According to some well-known
research Music has the power to evoke our emotions and those emotions are
able to bring with it some memories, thus bringing back the feeling of life and
joy when no other things can.
Some experiments proved that compared to the usual care, singing and
listening to music can improve mood, orientation, and the problems of
episodic memory and also the other brain functions. Singing can also
enhance our short-term and working memory in many cases.
It has been noted that the brains of epileptic patients tend to respond
differently to music than the other people who do not have the problem of
epilepsy. Music always helps them to feel relaxed and stress-free at the
same time. Stroke patients who listen to songs and music in the early stages
after having a stroke can show an improvement in the recovery process,
according to a 2008 study.
In 1973, a treatment based on music called the Melodic intonation

therapyy was created and developed to help stroke survivors or people who
are suffering from aphasia gain the ability to communicate again. The
purpose and target of the therapy are to convert the art of singing into
speech. Moreover, it has been found that even though the patients cannot
speak, they are often able to sing with some clarity.
