Via Miller-McCune:

Compared to a quarter-century ago, âPopular music lyrics now include more words related to a focus on the self,â reports a team of researchers led by University of Kentucky psychologist C. Nathan DeWall.

And:

Conversely, terms depicting social interactions (talking, sharing) became less common, as did the use of words conveying positive emotions (love, nice, sweet). These findings mirror ârecent evidence showing increases in U.S. loneliness and psychopathology over time,â the researchers write.
