I try to look at all art forms in this same way. Otherwise i'm always jaded by the douchbaggery of said artists. This same thought process is what makes me not want to know lyrics... While i know that lyrics are actually part of the art form, i feel that they are the part that is USUALLY paid the least attention to. There are obviously exceptions where the lyrics are wonderful, even inspiring (Nick Cave)... but those are so rare that i prefer to just listen to the music. |
