Crowd

A crowd is a large group of people that are gathered or considered together. The term "the crowd" may sometimes refer to the so-called lower orders of people in general (the mob). A crowd may be definable through a common purpose or set of emotions, such as at a political rally, a sports event, or during looting (this is known as a psychological crowd), or may simply be made up of many people going about their business in a busy area.

Terminology

The term crowd is sometimes defined in contrast to other group nouns for collections of humans or animals, such as aggregation, audience, group, mass, mob, populous, public, rabble and throng. Opinion researcher Vincent Price compares masses and crowds, saying that "Crowds are defined by their shared emotional experiences, but masses are defined by their interpersonal isolation."

In human sociology, the term "mobbed" simply means "extremely crowded", as in a busy mall or shop. In animal behaviour mobbing is a technique where many individuals of one species "gang up" on a larger individual of another species to drive them away. Mobbing behaviour is often seen in birds.

    Crowd

    by: Waylon Jennings

    I go out with the crowd I play the game
    Pretending out loud but it don't seem the same
    For the heart of the crowd is gone from sight
    And my part of the crowd is not with me tonight
    I remember the times each dance with you all those crazy things that we used to do
    Sometimes we'd wait for the dance and then steal away
    From the crowd and the dance till I hide away
    Oh but you're gone and it's not the same old game
    I fall apart everytime I hear your name
    I'll go on with the crowd of make believe
