JazzFest -- Same as every year. Fine. We went Friday, skipped Saturday for rain, thought we'd go Sunday but then skipped Sunday because of heavy workload. Three days of seven this year, not the usual four or five. Well, next year. Tickets were up in price, food too. Easy to hit over a hundred bucks for junk food for two all day. It's no-cash now, pay only by cards and apps -- and they do expect 20-25% tips for everything on the card/app readers.

For me, vocals are the second to last thing I pay attention to in music and lyrics are the very last. Maybe it's because lyrics never sink in - hahaha. I don't know. Take Satisfaction. I really like that song and have heard it thousands of times. But the only lyrics I can tell you right now are "I can't got no/Satisfaction" and something about "same cigarettes as me".

McGroovey:

I love good lyrics, but good can mean different things. Sometimes it equals meaningful and poetic; other times it means artfully suggestive. Or sometimes lyrics can be meaningless and poetic, or meaningful but clumsy.

I love Richard Buckner's lyrics, but half the time, who knows what they mean? Michael Stipe's lyrics usually don't mean anything particular, but they're often just right in their meaninglessness.

But one of my favorite songs is Surfin' Bird, which has perfect lyrics. You can understand every word, and you wouldn't want to change even one word.

In recent years, I've been reading more poetry than I have my whole life. I'm really enjoying it. But as soon as I am done, I couldn't recite a line that I read - haha. I have no idea what's wrong with me.

Of course, I'm not arguing against lyrics by any means. I like what McGroovey wrote @ 1:48. That's a pretty cool to engage with lyrics.

Just getting back from lunch now and seeing the lyrics/vocals discussion. Lyrics are first & foremost with me. I can tolerate a less-than-perfect vocal if the lyrics are great.

With that being said, being an a cappella fan for the past few decades has fundamentally changed the way I listen to music. I pay more attention to rhythm & bass lines & countermelodies & such now, thinking about how a song might sound if done a cappella.

If EVERYTHING in the song is foreign to me (never heard the song, don't know anything about the artist), it can be hard for me to grasp. But if there's at least 1 familiar element (my favorite artist doing a new song, an unfamiliar artist doing a cover of something I know, etc.), it's a little easier.
