Song Lyrics in Depth is a podcast that focuses on popular music from the perspective of semantic content, genre convention, and performativity. The hosts and invited guests bring a breadth of experience and insight. Håvard Bamle has written a Ph.D. thesis on ecological aspects of popular song lyrics; Michael Prince is co-leader of the Song Lyrics Research Group at the University of Agder. Our approach combines close reading with an informed understanding of cultural context for the titles we discuss.
