INTRODUCTION 1.1 Background of Study Literature, most generically, is anybody of written works. More restrictively, literature refers to writing considered to be an art form or any single writing deemed to have artistic or intellectual value, often due to deploying language in ways that differ from ordinary usage. According to Owen (2006:1), describes the language definition language can be defined as a socially shared Those combinations of symbols and rule governed Those combinations of symbols (language can be defined as a socially acceptable code or conventional system for delivering concepts through the use of symbols and combinations of the desired symbols are governed by the provisions). Literature, a body of written works. The name has traditionally been applied to those imaginative works of poetry and prose distinguished by the intentions of their authors and the perceived aesthetic excellence of their execution. Literature may be classified according to a variety of systems, including language, national origin, historical period, genre, and subject matter. According to (Hirsch 1978:34) “Let me,then,end with my own stipulative definition of literature. Literature includes any text worthy to be taught to students by teacher of literature,when these texts are not being taught to students in other departments of a school or university 1 1 Universitas Sumatera Utara Song lyrics is included of kind of literature because lyric is language creation (poem) which contains of personal feeling expression. Song lyric is like poem but it is served in song form. It attributes are imaginative but nowadays. Song also contains critic to our government‟s wisdom, welfare, miserable, etc. A lyric which is written by author, has destination that will be delivered to audience.

Song is more interesting if is sung by singer who has certain voice character beside sing lyric also interesting. Singers give special voice that makes it touch audience‟s feeling. Music arrangement also influences music power too. Language is a network of relationship. As human being, people really need language to do interaction and communication to each other. As Clark (1997:3) said “language stands at the centre of human affairs, from the most prosaic to the most profound”. It means that language is very important in life and is the power of expressing tought and feelings. Language is also the expression of ideas by writing or any other instrumentality. Literature is a uniquely human activity,born of man’s timeless desire to understand, express, and finally share experiences. According to Pickering, James H & Hoeper, Jeffrey D (1981.01307) Literary works are works, other than audiovisual works, expressed in words, numbers, or other verbal or numerical symbols or indicia, regardless of the nature of the material objects, such as books, periodicals, manuscripts, phono records, film, tapes, disks, or cards, in which they 2 Universitas Sumatera Utara are embodied. Music and literarture have ancient origins and and do not only lie at the heart of religious and cultural practices and narratives,but also provide widely popular leisure activities in everyday life (Diana Omigie, 2015). We use Language in order to communicate one with other, to express our personal
