What level would Motley Crue's "You're all I need" and Skid Rows "18 and Life" would fall under?(Both of these songs are Murder Ballads)

I removed the statement that most of Rick James' music would be classified in Level 3. Some of his best-known songs, such as "Super Freak" and "Give It to Me Baby," would be several levels above that. Where he should be classified, I am not sure, but a singer whose best-known song begins "She's a very kinky girl" is not a Level 3.

Where should Katy Perry's "Chained To The Rhythm" go? In lyrical tone it's a 1, but in lyrical implication it's somewhere between 7 and 9.

Compared to other protest songs (averaging a 7), the lyrics are much milder. Although there is alcohol use (supposedly a 7), it fits 5 better.

Where would Inscription of Hope go? The lyrics are simultaneously pessimistic and optimistic, depressing and heartening.

Should these have links to the lyrics? Most examples don't have a snippet of them like the trope description asks for, but it'd get awfully long if they did, anyway.

I thought up and launched this page, and I don't mind.
