Songs Bridges and what you need to know about them.

                                                                                                                                                  Bridges are found in songs that include choruses—and in those that do not. In songs that include verses and choruses, bridges are optional. Although we don’t know the exact percentage of songs that include bridges, it has been estimated that bridges can be found in almost fifty percent of songs that are built with verses and choruses. If a bridge is included in a Verse-Chorus song, it almost always connects the second and third choruses.                            A chorus almost always includes the song’s title, sometimes multiple times. Bridges typically do not include the title, although there are notable exceptions such as “When A Man Loves a Woman” which begins each verse—and the bridge—with the title.
