What does a chorus do in a pop song? Among our most basic assumptions about what will happen in a pop song is the expectation that it will lead us towards the fulfilment and clarity of a chorus, so it’s always interesting when a song chooses not to do this. Looking at this question in the context of Otis Redding’s 1966 version of ‘Cigarettes and Coffee’ can tell us something about what pop songs as a whole express to us: the way - perhaps unconsciously - listening to them shapes our understanding of the world.
All the songs discussed in this episode, including Redding’s version of ‘Cigarettes and Coffee’, can be heard here (https://open.spotify.com/playlist/5nM...) . The original, by Al Braggs, isn’t on Spotify but can be found - at the time of publication - on YouTube ( • Al 'TNT' Braggs: Cigarettes & coffee ) .
