Exactly. There are those that understand music and appreciate a good composition, and those that only care about the meaning of the words in the song. You can’t look at music that way. If you focus solely on the meaning behind the words, you would find yourself listening to nothing but instrumentals.
Indeed.
I love the songs “Sukiyaki” and “99 Luftballons” for much the same reason—because the phonemes and musical composition combine very well. I truly do not understand a word of “Sukiyaki” and I only get the “99 -—ballons” of the second—but then, I’m not listening for the words.
