    I would, but my internet connection is pure shit right now, and it'd take me about three days of buffering before I could even listen to the first ten fucking seconds. Still, from what I can see on the thumbnail, the lyrics look dreadful so far.

    It's not about the lyrics, it's about the music!

    Lyrics are a very important part of a song...except for Black Metal, 'cos you can't understand a single word of it.
    If it's not about the lyrics, you might as well leave them out.

    But if the lyrics sound a bit silly, that doesn't mean the whole song is bad. If I listen to a song, I mostly don't listen to the lyrics. You should stop caring about lyrics. They call it 'music' and not 'poets'.

    In a way music is Poetry.

    I never said that. Although if the lyrics sound bad (not just the text, but the singing as well), I find a song less enjoyable. As I said, my internet is shit right now, and I can barely watch any videos. The only thing I had of the song you posted, were the lyrics that were on the thumbnail, so that was the only think I had to make up an opinion about the song.

    Also, I'm not going to change the way I listen to music because someone on the internet told me so. Anyone who does is pretty weak-minded.

    And I'll say it again: If music isn't about lyrics, get rid of them. If they were poetry, there would be no background music. If there were no lyrics, they would be instrumental songs (which can be awesome as well). However, a somewhat catchy pop song without lyrics leaves just a generic and hollow tune. It might be fun to listen to, but what's the fun of that when you can also bother everyone around you by singing along as badly and loudly as you can?

    Meh. I think it's just nice to listen to.

    It can be less enjoyable, yes, but it doesn't have to. But that's just my opinion.

    I think this songtekst is pretty good, but you can judge for yourself.

    I didn't tell you to change the way you listen to music. It was meant metaphoric.

    Meh, you got me there. Though, I do know some very good instrumental songs to bother everyone with, with the lyrics.

    It doesn't have to, but when I do nothing but listen to a song, I do listen carefully to the lyrics. It's nice when they make sense when that happens.

    I've seen a lot worse, although I do get the feeling some parts of it were just written to make it rhyme, which make it sound like a poem written by a young girl at some points.

    While it's hard to give your words the tone you mean it to give when you type stuff on the internet, you literally said:
    So do I, with YYZ by Rush being one of the best ones. Metallica has a few good ones as well.

    Could be, I couldn't see. But usually when I see these people "play", I tend to think the box is just made out of cardboard and completely empty. Again, I can't imagine electronic music being very suitable for live concerts.
