Okay, I have nothing against that song in particular, but that line irks me like no other line can.
My brother and I were debating about the importance of lyrics, and whether a really good beat or rythym can override terribly stupid lyrics. Personally, I can't stand songs with uber-dumb lyrics, no matter how catchy they are. There have been memorable exceptions (most embarrassingly, Fergie's songs), but as a general rule it's a big, big NO. Perfect example? "I'm in Luv With a Stripper" WTFOMG. I know people that love that song but hate the lyrics, but solely because of the lyrics, I can't stand it. So, to you, can a catchy tune make you ignore lyrics? Can really good lyrics override a so-so song? |

Lyrics are extremely important to me. (: I like to know that the artist that I'm listening to has something to say, something to make another feel a particular feeling, etc. It's kind of inspiring, even.
But when songs have everything but the 'good lyrics', I tend to ignore whatever the artist is singing.  It's still good music, yeah?
