Teen Angst, or something

<< < (4/4)

Fellfrosch:
I can't not listen to lyrics--they're practically all I can hear. My wife is frequently exasperated that I can remember the lyrics to a song I've only heard once, and yet can't remember any number of little things people tell me a hundred times.

EUOL:
I'm kind of the same way, at least, in that I can't not-pay-attention to lyrics.  Perhaps it's the writer in me, but I am always very curious about what the song is saying--so much so that I often look up the lyrics and read them.  This only happens, of course, if one of the songs makes me curious.  I can listen to Ramstein and not care what they're talking about, since I don't speak German.  (Actually, knowing Ramstein, I'd probabably rather not know...)

The Holy Saint, Grand High Poobah, Master of Monkeys, Ehlers:
I've gotten into (annoying as it is to Entropy) a habit of evaluating hwo the music and words affect each other. So yeah, I listen to them. Most pop artists are poor at working the two together.
