I don’t mean singing in a foreign language, I mean if they aren’t enunciating their words.
There is a style of singing where the singer rolls one word into the next word, or just cuts a word off. I find it distracting and I tend to skip the song very quickly when I realize what they are doing.
While it is a popular way to sing, I have never enjoyed it. I heard some of it in the 1980s but it wasn’t widely used. Today I find a lot more singers doing it.
I’m basically the opposite. I don’t mind lyrics, but i basically don’t care. I mainly listen to the actual music, the instruments, and the way each sound and voice sounds like and makes me feel. I can’t understand the lyrics at the same time, so if i care, i need to read them.
Billie Eilish did this when she first came into the industry. She sounded drunk all the time. I stopped listening. But lately she learned to use her lips or something and it’s much more tolerable
Not really an opinion though, is it?
I think it is.
Personally I NEVER can understand what any of these songs are saying.
I was very confused by the sudden populatity in the late 90s of a white rapper singing about zamboni’s. If you don’t know what a zamboni is, they’re the little truck things that drive onto ice rinks between periods at hockey games to smooth out the ice.
Nobody had a clue what I was talking about. Apperently he wasn’t saying his name was zamboni. He was saying his name was slim shady.
Which still makes no sense, because I thought his name was eminem. Which STILL doesn’t make sense, because his name is Marshal Mathers.
How many names does this guy need???
