Abstract

This study uses a phonetic technique to analyze the vowel sounds in Halsey's “Gasoline” and “Colors” songs. The use of long and short vowels in the lyrics is the subject of the examination. The study aims to present research findings on the long and short vowels in Halsey’s songs “Gasoline” and “Colors.” The writer also determines the impact of long and short vowels on the songs. The research methodology is a qualitative approach. The writer uses phonetics studies to analyze the long and short vowel sounds displayed in a table to provide a thorough understanding of the vowel sounds in the lyrics. According to the study, Halsey's songs' emotional effect is greatly influenced by phonetics, particularly long and short vowels. There are 87 examples of long vowels and 49 of short vowels. In the song "Colors” there are 72 examples of long vowels and 28 of short vowels, demonstrating how vowel articulation such as /iː/, /ɑː/, and /uː/ may improve emotion and intelligibility. Research on the significance of vowel sounds in successful vocal performance is supported by the notion that anatomical elements, such as the location of the tongue and lips, are necessary for appropriate pronunciation. The results provide insights into phonetics and linguistics in lyrics and demonstrate how vowel usage enhances emotional expressiveness in music.
