Ok, so what they are doing is admirable, I'll give them that. But I just don't enjoy it, at all. Heck I even like some Leonard Cohen stuff. If you know all it is I like and listen to you would know that my ear is pretty un-discriminating.

But overall I think music comes first, I think the sound of the music is the maker or breaker, not the lyrics, because I'll be honest, I listen to a good deal of music with pretty bad lyrics.

But I do appreciate lyrics as long as I like the music too. If you have a band where both the music and the lyrics speak to me, then thats great, but I don't care how great the lyrics are if I just don't feel the music.

Lol. Not his solo stuff. But I am a big fan of Peter Gabriel era Genesis, and I like some of the Collins era stuff, I mean its pop music, you know, the kinda music you like but feel guilty about for some reason.

I only listen to you talk when I want to hear Emo performed acapella.
