song: Definition and Much More from Answers.com (2163 words)
The words of songs are typically of a poetic, rhyming nature, although they may be religious verses or free prose.
Art songs are songs created for performance in their own right, or for the purposes of a European upper class, usually with piano accompaniment, although they can also have other types of accompaniment such as an orchestra or string quartet, and are always notated.
The German word for song, "Lied" (plural: "Lieder"), is used in French and English-speaking communities to refer to the serious art song, whereas in German-speaking communities the word "Kunstlied" (plural: "Kunstlieder") is used to distinguish art song from folk song ("Volkslied").

The completed song is then sent to an airless studio, where musicians, vocalists and an engineer gather to record it and many others like it as fast as is humanly possible, often on a quota basis that can gobble up 12 or more songs per hour.
Because most song-poem companies provide a checklist of pop music styles from which the customer may select a favorite or most suitable mode for their song to be set in, the studio personnel assigned to make the record does so according to a readymade template that roughly resembles that style.
