Reply to comment by Chocolate_Rage in How do i tell the lead singer of my band that they aren’t that good? by MiniFestSam
This is super true with electronic too - heavily distorted samples, unidentifiable l/random sounds like chair scraping across the ground, one of my fave song is in Spanish and it doesn’t matter - the overarching composition of the song, coming together in a connected, sometimes sprawling, way. Really it’s true for all instrumental music, but in a lot of electronic music I listen to human voice is used as a sound that’s not meant to be directly parsed.
That said, I also appreciate complex and meaningful lyrics in a different way, as an additional layer in some music, but not necessary. I also don’t think someone needs to be a classically good singer to be good. Some genres have people sing flat or off key and that’s what actually works for the music.
