- archagon 2y agoI would argue that 99% of popular songs have fairly poor quality lyrics (though it doesn't really matter with regard to artistic merit of the finished product). Singer-songwriters in folk-adjacent genres such as Joni Mitchell, Sufjan Stevens, and Don McLean come closest to actual poetry IMHO.
