Blues lyrics in teaching music and Czech at the grammar school

My study is entitled: “Blues lyrics in teaching music and Czech at the grammar school” and now I will outline its fundamental contents, the basic conclusions of my study and the meth- ods used to help me reach these conclusions. The study is conceived as a comparison of five American and five Czech blues compositions, which are considered the most popular and basic works of the genre. I did this by analyzing several available charts focused on foreign blues songs and then compiled my list of the five “most popular” American blues songs based on the number of occurrences and locations of the songs in specific charts. For Czech songs, this procedure was more difficult, because I could not find any survey, discussion or ranking that focused specifically on blues songs. So, I proceeded here more or less intuitively and I put together a list of five songs according to my own knowledge of songs, according to the popularity of songs on the youtube music portal and the popularity of the artists who presented the songs. I analyzed the compositions mainly from the textual point of view; however, I did not forget the musical aspect. I was mainly looking for basic identical and different elements in the text area. I found several identical elements, not only in terms of themes, but also in the construction of texts and poetic turns. However, I also found certain textual differences in the Czech and foreign compositions. I will discuss these identical and different elements in more detail in the following text.
