Abstract

Culture and media are two beings that cannot be separated and influence each other, in which different cultures can be reflected through different media productions. One of those is by music or song as the media. Two cultures, Spanish and Indonesian cultures, are highlighted in this study due to the fact that those cultures have relatively different backgrounds of culture. By using two songs produced in those two countries as the objects of the study, this study aims to figure out how Spanish and Indonesian cultures picture erotism and vulgarity in it. The scrutinization of the song lyrics are done by utilizing descriptive qualitative methods, as well as by referring to the theory of erotism. In results, the song produced in Spain is discovered more explicit in stating the words related to erotism. On the other hand, the Indonesian song tends to use more implicit words in expressing erotism and vulgarity.
