Abstract

The presupposition in the lyrics of Erika song was analyzed by applying fairy tale theory of presupposition from George Yule, a pragmatic. This research attempts to analyze the species of presupposition in the song and also describe how implicit assumptions impact audience interpretation and public controversy. Qualitative descriptive is used in this study because the implicit meaning of lyrics tells by song. Data Source Lyrics of “Erika” or “Goyang Erika, Cinta 25 Karat” Orkes semi dangdut (OSD) Himpunan Mahasiswa Tambang (HMT) Institut Teknologi Bandung (ITB). Data were collected by documentation and library research methods. The analysis exposes two forms of presupposition, namely, existential and lexical presupposition. The first presupposition is existential presupposition which dominates as in the lyrics “Walau sudah janda” that implies having been married before, whereas Lexical Presuppositions can be found in this lyric. Their findings suggest that implicit stereotypes about women, sexuality, and gender shown in the lyrics also shape people views of the song beyond its literal meaning.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the representation of social and humanitarian values in the song “Heal the World” by Michael Jackson and to examine its relevance to social reality and Sustainable Development Goals (SDG 16: Peace, Justice, and Strong Institutions). This research employs a qualitative method based on the framework proposed by John W. Creswell, where the data consist of words, phrases, and sentences derived from the song lyrics. The data were collected through documentation and library research and analyzed through stages of data condensation, coding, theme identification, and interpretation. The findings reveal several major themes, namely peace as an ideal social condition, social criticism toward injustice and lack of empathy, humanitarian values as the foundation of social harmony, and individual responsibility in creating social change. The song reflects social realities such as conflict, inequality, and human suffering, while also functioning as a form of social criticism toward societal conditions. In conclusion, “Heal the World” serves as both a reflection of social conditions and a medium of social criticism that remains relevant in contemporary society and supports the values of SDG 16.
