Glancing alternative song structures with Graphviz

11/23/2006

Here is the song structure - based on previous/next words of some of my favorite songs. Click on an image to see it in a larger size.

Incubus - Aqueous Transmission



Radiohead - Idioteque



Muse - Falling Away From You



Flaming Lips - Yoshimi Battles the Pink Robots (part one)



Foo Fighters - Aurora



Interpol - The New



Beatles - A Day in the Life



I am interested in comparing some of these alternative song diagrams to more radio/poppy ones. I might even try looking at all the tracks of an album too.

Note, I am leaving all the analysis to your interpretation. After all, music is an art. I am merely curious if it is possible to visualize a possible "hit?" At any rate, Happy Thanksgiving!
