Thesis (M.A.)--University of Louisville, 2002.

One argument in the sociology of music debates whether pop music is a stimulus of social change or is a commodity subject to the demands of the market. This study posits that the formulaic characteristics of popular music have remained relatively stable and enduring over the years and asserts that pop music is a market-based product that does not accurately reflect prevalent social and political concerns. The Billboard top ten hit songs for each year 1950 to 1999 (N = 500) were analyzed and the results show that pop music characteristics such as form, content, length, and theme have remained quite static across time. Song length was found to increase significantly after 1968, the probable result of a paradigm shift in the music industry after the release of The Beatles' "Hey Jude". Hit songs, however, continued to adhere to pop music conventions of length within their respective eras. This research suggests that music industry marketing geared towards youths has helped perpetuate a predictable formula of music that excludes songs that tackle sensitive social and political issues.
