> Aha! That explains it. I won't even listen to a band that has crappy lyrics,
One thing that really bothers me is going into a store and hearing songs with "crappy lyrics" being piped in. You're forced to listen to it!
>but I do like bossa nova, which uses the voice as an instrument, rather than for lyrics.
That sounds interesting. Don't think I've heard any.
>As for "Bennie and the Jets," it's really just about a glam-rock band and all the kids showing up to hear them. Ain't nothing to understand, really.
I guess I thought it had some deep, symbolic meaning that I wasn't getting!
> What kind of instrumentals do you like? Classical? New Age? Samba?
Classical can be a little melancholy so generally not. New Age, not really. Samba can be nice. There are some things I've heard on web stations but don't know what category they'd fall under--just that they sounded good to me. I'm not very musically knowledgeable.
