I know its over by the smiths

For me i really need to get a grasp of the meaning and context of the song. It might not always be the lyrics specifically but often times it is. I need to get a feel on how the artist felt when they made the music and lyrics is often the most efficient way of getting a feel of their state of mind during the music making process. I mean you certainly can tell without music but then the artists in this case have to be involved in creating the whole sound, in today’s music landscape where their is so many producers and writers that will make the music for the artist therefore it isn’t really interesting. That’s why it is hard to listen to commercial acts or just generic music in general. This doesn’t even have anything to do with the post or comment but yeah
