Young people have consistently delivered songs that have focused on struggles for social rights, civil rights, women\u2019s rights and ethnic and sexual minorities rights through creative anger, emotion and resistance, and we know that music matters because we consciously feel the song (DeNora, 2000, Music in everyday life, Cambridge: Cambridge University Press). However, in the aftermath of the post-2008 global economic and cultural crises, young people, in particular, have faced austerity, social hardship and political changes, which have impacted on their future lives (France, 2016, Understanding youth in the global economic crisis, Bristol: Policy Press; Kelly &amp; Pike, 2017, Neo-liberalism and austerity: The moral economies of young people\u2019s health and well-being, London, UK: Palgrave). This special issue assesses the key contestation where popular music is a mechanism to not only challenge but to think through ordinary people\u2019s experience and appeals for social justice. The present introduction starts by presenting the historical and theoretical background of this research field. Then, it introduces the articles about the songs that sing the crisis in Portugal, Spain, Ireland, Finland, Norway, Egypt and Tunisia through the rhythms of rap, hip-hop, fado, electronic pop, indie rock, reggaeton, metal and mahragan. <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1177\/1103308819879825","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2020,1,14]],"date-time":"2020-01-14T09:54:38Z","timestamp":1578995678000},"page":"5-13","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":4,"title":["Introduction: Songs that Sing the Crisis: Music, Words, Youth Narratives and Identities in Late Modernity"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"28","author":[{"given":"Paula","family":"Guerra","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"University of Porto, Porto, Portugal"}]},{"given":"Carles","family":"Feixa P\u00e0mpols","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Pompeu Fabra University, Barcelona, Catalonia, Spain"}]},{"given":"Shane","family":"Blackman","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Canterbury Christ Church University, Canterbury, UK"}]},{"given":"Jeanette","family":"Ostegaard","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"The Danish National Centre for Social Research, Copenhagen, Denmark"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2020,1,14]]},"reference":[{"key":"bibr1-1103308819879825","first-page":"256","volume-title":"On record","author":"Adorno T.","year":"1941"},{"key":"bibr2-1103308819879825","volume-title":"Cultures of popular music","author":"Bennett A.","year":"2001"},{"key":"bibr3-1103308819879825","volume-title":"DIY cultures and underground music scenes","author":"Bennett A.","year":"2019"},{"key":"bibr4-1103308819879825","volume-title":"Sound tracks: Popular music, identity and place","author":"Connell J.","year":"2002"},{"key":"bibr5-1103308819879825","volume-title":"CD Album","author":"Crosby Stills","year":"1970"},{"key":"bibr6-1103308819879825","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1017\/CBO9780511489433"},{"key":"bibr7-1103308819879825","volume-title":"Songs of social protest","author":"Dillane A.","year":"2018"},{"key":"bibr8-1103308819879825","first-page":"33","volume-title":"The subcultural imagination: Theory, research and reflexivity in contemporary youth cultures","author":"Dimou E.","year":"2016"},{"key":"bibr9-1103308819879825","first-page":"230","volume-title":"Underground music scenes and DIY cultures","author":"Draganova A.","year":"2019"},{"key":"bibr10-1103308819879825","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1017\/CBO9780511628139"},{"key":"bibr11-1103308819879825","volume-title":"De J\u00f3venes, Bandas y Tribus [Youth, Gangs and Tribes]","author":"Feixa C.","year":"2012"},{"key":"bibr12-1103308819879825","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1080\/08831157.2017.1321336"},{"issue":"3","key":"bibr13-1103308819879825","volume":"28","author":"Feixa C.","year":"2019","journal-title":"Revista Espa\u00f1ola de Sociolog\u00eda"},{"key":"bibr14-1103308819879825","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1386\/pjss.16.3.305_1"},{"key":"bibr15-1103308819879825","volume-title":"#Generaci\u00f3nIndignada.
