Abstract

Modern popular songs have become one of the most influential cultural products for the people today, with various characteristics such as great influence, wide audience, and diverse means of dissemination. Lyrics, as the backbone of popular songs, can be regarded as a form of musical literature in terms of their nature. They contain both literary elements in music and musical attributes in literature. On the basis of inheriting the unique aesthetic artistic characteristics of ancient Chinese poetry, the lyrics of domestic popular songs also integrate modern elements of the times, forming a unique new poetic style. Compared with traditional songs, the lyrics structure of modern popular songs has undergone significant changes, with a subversion of grammatical norms and a reshaping of classical imagery, showcasing the unique aesthetic and cultural connotations of modern music.
