In the present study, we address the relationship between
the emotions perceived in pop and rock music (mainly
in Euro-American styles with English lyrics) and the language
spoken by the listener. Our goal is to understand
the influence of lyrics comprehension on the perception of
emotions and use this information to improve Music Emotion
Recognition (MER) models. Two main research questions
are addressed:
1. Are there differences and similarities between the
emotions perceived in pop/rock music by listeners
raised with different mother tongues?
2. Do personal characteristics have an influence on
the perceived emotions for listeners of a given language?
Personal characteristics include the listeners’ general
demographics, familiarity and preference for the fragments,
and music sophistication [14]. Our hypothesis is
that inter-rater agreement (as defined by Krippendorff’s alpha
coefficient) from subjects is directly influenced by the
comprehension of lyrics.
