Abstract

Song Lyrics are supposed to have some sort of an implied meaning or another meaning that the performer tries to convey. In this study, the signifier and signified of Taylor Swift's song lyrics will be dissected and examined. For the purpose of this investigation, a qualitative methodology will be utilised, and a semiotic analysis developed by Ferdinand de Saussure will be applied to each verse of the song lyrics. In his theory, Saussure proposed that in order for something to be considered a sign, it needed to include both a marker, also known as a signifier, and a concept (Signified). For the aim of collecting data for this analysis, the song will be sectioned off into stanzas, and each each stanza will be assigned a signifier. Afterward, the provision of a signified, more especially the notion of the marker. Lastly, the researchers will then determine the love meaning of each stanza as well as each verse.   Keyword: Lyric, Saussure Semiotics, Taylor Swift

Abstract

The current era has witnessed significant developments in the realms of digital and technology, which have impacted every aspect of our lives, including the art of filmmaking. Not only has technology empowered actors to portray characters, but it has also given rise to animated films to give a message. A prominent scholar, Roland Barthes, proposed that the concept of semiotics could be used as a tool to uncover hidden meanings in various forms of media. The objective of this paper is to examine the denotative elements in Sony Pictures Animation's Hair Love using Roland Barthes' semiotic theory. The purpose of this study is to discuss and explain the nonverbal signs or symbols that appear in the film. The denotative elements present in Hair Love are identified and analyzed using qualitative analysis in this study. The findings of this study reveal the presence of 23 denotative and connotative elements in the movie. Overall, this study contributes to the field of semiotics by analyzing the denotative elements in a contemporary animated film using Barthes' theory. This study's findings can provide useful insights into the use of nonverbal symbols in animated films and how they can be used to convey hidden meanings to the audience.

Abstract

This research describes the Sufism and spiritual interpretation of several Letto Songs. This research uses descriptive qualitative. The analysis shows that religious meanings may be detected in the lyrics of Letto's song entitled “Sebelum Cahaya, Sandaran Hati, Ruang Rindu, Permintaan Hati, Lubang di Hati, Dalam Duka, Sebenarnya Cinta, Jalan Yang Hilang”. Overall, the religious sentiments contained in the Letto band's songs demonstrate that the words in Letto's songs may be utilized as reflection material or guidance for the general audience to better comprehend the religion. The meaning of Letto's song lyrics penetrates deep and sublime love, they make up the lyrics as if they were only conveyed to humans. Letto’s songs usually also tell stories about spirituality or contain religious values that are very strong in their song. If we understand Letto's songs, we must go through two understandings of text and non-text (meaning hidden behind the depths of words). If we only understand it from a textual point of view, we will only find Letto's songs are just love songs between a pair of humans. However, if we dissect the non-textual side, we will find a Sufistic understanding that songs are a reflection of the animosity between man and his Beloved; Lord. If we are more careful and absorb the lyrics of some of Letto's songs, we will surely feel as if we are being transported to a situation wherein in that space there are only us and God. In the Sufi world, the lyrics and stanzas of a song are a form of expression of love for God the Creator.
