Is it just me or has anyone else ever listened to music for years, and liked the beat but never understood the words until they googled the lyrics ?


Then again it may have been caused by being under the influence and distracted by the dancers?

Some of these new kids are going to break me of looking up the lyrics. Koe Wetzel and Tyler Childers in particular but yes. I always figured it was my hearing loss.

If it is Rock from before it died, I always thought the words did not matter, because it was the sound of the singer that was more like and instrument. Like the guy who passed away not to long ago from ACDC. He sounded cats in a screen, but he propelled that band while he was lead singer. This new studio synthesized stuff is not music no matter the genre, as it all sounds the same from country to pop. None of these people have finger callouses or keyboard cramp from sitting for hours tapping out a riff.
I don't even like bluegrass anymore as they all play it so fast that it sounds like they are all coked up. I have not come across a modern song which had any prose in it worth googling.

I was 14 in 1970 and a lot of the music was about the war, but I didn't realize it until I saw the videos many years later. Lotta good music in that era.

I can not not hear the lyrics , to the point that songs with lyrics and conversation some times just can not happen at the same time.

it isn't just new songs but old ones also
my wife and I refer to this song as the date rape song listen to the lyrics
