The Impact Of Taylor Swift Selected Songs On The Youth

---

Music influences emotions and thought patterns, with Taylor Swift
being one of the most impactful artists. This study examines the effects of
her lyrics on listeners using Cognitive and Emotional Semantics theory
(Lakoff & Ko vecses). A qualitative approach was employed, gathering
questionnaires and interview data from English Literature students who
actively listen to her music. The findings reveal five major impacts: the first

impact (60%) is increased self-confidence, as her lyrics encourage self-
acceptance and growth. The second impact (64%) is greater optimism and

motivation, helping listeners navigate challenges. The third impact (64%)
is a strong emotional connection, as her lyrics resonate with personal
experiences. The fourth impact (68%) is enhanced resilience, inspiring
perseverance. The fifth impact (56%) is improved self-reflection and
emotional awareness, aiding in emotional processing. These findings
suggest that Taylor Swift’s music serves not only as entertainment but also
as a source of motivation and emotional support. Future research should
explore a broader audience and different music genres.
