Abstract

Every World Cup has unique theme songs, which not only reflect the characteristics and culture of the World Cup tournament, but also show the musical style and artistic level of different countries and regions. By reviewing World Cup theme songs from 1986 to 2022 and analyzing the evolution of musical styles, lyric themes, singing forms and their compositional techniques in the previous World Cup theme songs, the following insights were obtained: music has the ability to transcend cultures and languages, and it can unite the global audience and make people feel the passion and friendship of the World Cup in a shared musical experience. The creation of World Cup theme songs is not only a display of music, but also a symbol of the times, reflecting the musical characteristics and popular elements of each era
