Why low rhymes the way it does
The phonology of low is a one-syllable core: the round /oส/ (/oส/), then it fades through an approximant. In our 54,000-word dictionary the perfect-rhyme pool returns 93 matches, family rhymes 0, additive and subtractive together 727, assonance 2,356, and consonance 0. That's a deep perfect column. The song can ride strict rhymes from end to end, only sliding into assonance when the line needs to surprise. Practical guidance: read the song aloud and listen for where a slant would tighten the line. Strict rhymes are the structural skeleton; the slant columns are where the personality of the lyric lives. With low, the slant work is doing more weight-bearing than it looks.
