Why tingling rhymes the way it does
Tingling sits on the short /ษช/, transcribed /ษช/ in our engine, and rings out through a nasal. In our 54,000-word dictionary the perfect-rhyme pool returns 6 matches, family rhymes 0, additive and subtractive together 26, assonance 12,630, and consonance 7. That's a narrow strict column with a very deep slant well beneath it. Modern songwriting reads those slants as rhymes; the ear has been trained on them for a century. The songwriter's move is to pick a small set of strict rhymes for the chorus and open up to family and assonance through the verses. Tingling rewards slant rhyming because the strict pool, when over-used, calls attention to itself.
