Pop songs as sonnets


Pop Sonnets is a tumblr that turns pop music into Shakespearean sonnets: above, YMCA (“Oh sweet and noble lad, be not aggrieved!”).

Below, The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air (“From western Philadelphia I hail, where in my youth I’d play upon the green”). Lots more to enjoy at Pop Sonnets!
