I'm somewhat odd, I think, in that whereas I can KNOW all the lyrics to a song and sing along every single word, I don't ever pay attention to the lyrics and what songs are about. Like "Under the Bridge" - I just found out from my brother two days ago that the song is about heroin. "Turning Japanese" - I had NO IDEA that was a swong about masturbation. "Thw Way" - no clue whatsoeverf that this Fastball song was about suicide until my ex told me. I just don't pay attention to lyrics when listening to musix usually. I listen to the rhythm, the melody, etc, and let that tell me what I thin of the song and let that create the way I feel. Like "Tubthumping" which was mentioned above in this thread - to ME that's juat a happy, fun, bouncy song. No clue what it's about expect I know solme dude in it drinks a whiskey drink and then a lager drink. *sshrug* Call me simple or ignonrant if you want, but for me, music is about the way it makes me feel and the words themselves aren't really important. Music is about my happiness, hope, and my soul.

My all time most annoying song is "Layla". First half is a great rock song, the second half is awful and goes on way too long. Coming in a very close second is "Hey Jude".

Can any Redsox fan explain this to me? Shouldn't Redsox play "Sweet Emotion" by Boston's Aerosmith instead of "Sweet Caroline" by New York's Diamond????
