Definitions of Popular Culture

John Storey (Cultural Studies Professor) offers six different definitions of popular culture. It is



  1. It is a culture that is widely favoured or liked.

  2. It is whatever is left after you substracted "high culture."

  3. It can be defined as commercial objects that are produced for mass consumption by non-discriminating consumers.

  4. It is folk culture and is created by the people (authentic) as opposed to commercial enterprises.

  5. It is partly imposed on by the dominant classes, but the subordinate classes decide what to keep or discard.

  6. The distinction between "authentic" and "commercial" is blurred.

Free or Not?

Shackles of a broken love, loosen and drop from my soul
Give me the freedom I've yearned for to fully make me whole

Allow me to search within myself with the ability to find
A love that doesn't hurt my heart nor destroy my mind

I want to be free, just me, myself and I
I want to be free, and let not time pass me by

For so long I have accepted a cloudiness in my space
No more shall endure such pain, for this I shall erase

The time has come for me to make a new change in my life
Questions and answers being sought, appears before my eyes

I want to be free, just me, myself and I
I want to be free, and live a joyful peaceful life.

I choose to embrace peace and happiness within my inner soul
Thanking you for strengthening me and loosening up this hold

Sometimes it may take time for a broken love to heal
But, only if I keep the faith, will a true love be revealed

It's being free to love me, to love myself and I
Time to me is of the essence and it will not pass me by
