This data set is the top 100 songs (with lyrics) for every single year from 1959 to 2023 in the United States.

The top 100 songs of the year was web scrapped from https://billboardtop100of.com and the lyrics were pulled from the Genius API.

The all_songs_data_processed.csv file is the output file of the starter notebook. This file is a cleaned up version of the data set where part of speech data (verbs, nouns, ect) are already extracted from the lyrics. This file should be an easier starting point for people who want to jump right in.

I also provided a starter EDA notebook for those who want to just jump into analysis.
