Introduction
Language is a very important source of human life because language conveys thoughts, ideas, concepts or feelings of each human being to others.Language is a way of conveying our ideas to the minds of others [1].It can be concluded that the importance of language as a means of communication is used by everyone in expressing their thoughts to others.Without language in our life, it is difficult for everyone to understand the feelings and thoughts of others.
There are many ways to convey language, it can be conveyed directly or indirectly to others.If you want to convey it directly in a communication, both parties have the same interpretation.Then the misunderstanding between them, arguably a little bit happened.And the language used in direct communication mostly has denotative meaning, which aims to obtain and share information.However, there is also language that is conveyed indirectly, for example in the form of songs, poetry and novels.With that the language used usually has a connotative meaning in expressing it together with language that touches the feelings of the listener or reader [2].
The importance of language cannot be separated from us in all aspects of human life, such as: education, economics, technology, art, science, etc.Therefore, this time the writer will discuss one of these aspects, namely the art aspect.In art there are many types such as novels, poetry, songs, etc [3].One of them is songs, because now a day everyone likes music or songs from young people to adults, both at home and abroad.Until not a few of those who want to own and even collect their favorite cassette or CD songs.Languages around the world use various languages, but this time the author is interested in conducting research on English songs, where in several ASEAN countries such as Malaysia, Brunei Darussalam, and the Philippines, English is a second language (both languages). in Indonesia.Just like songs, English songs are among the most favorite foreign languages in Indonesia.Apart from the rhythm and the music that is easy to hear, they are interested in improving their mastery of English through popular English songs.
According to [4] there are several advantages where songs are used as a learning resource, namely songs can be a medium for introducing new languages, then as an affirmation of vocabulary and grammar.Songs are also useful for integrally developing everyone's language skills, including improving English pronunciation or pronunciation skills [5].
Song is a form of language use that contains verses that will be sung and combined with accompanying musical instruments.As a songwriter it is necessary to pay attention to diction and series of sentences so that the lyrics contained in the song can match the rhythm, so that poetic and harmonious words are created with beautiful tones and sounds.According to [6] states that style or language style is a method used by the author in conveying his ideas in accordance with the goals and effects to be achieved.In keeping with this statement, it is important to use the style of language in the songwriters' lyrics.
Songs are a medium for expressing and channeling one's ideas, feelings, thoughts, messages, and creativity [7].In this regard, the language in the song lyrics is an interesting thing to learn because there are artistic and aesthetic values contained in it through the use of various language styles [8].In a song, the language style used can help to understand the ideas and thoughts of someone who wants to be conveyed, to see the creativity of the creator who wants to be displayed and to feel the emotions of someone who wants to be conveyed.So that is what makes researchers want to do research on song lyrics regarding language style, especially English song lyrics by the Maroon 5 music group on some of its songs.
