Does it bother you that you can't understand the lyrics when you listen to Japanese pop music?

>> No.10998429

That makes sense and it's why I respect opera and church music (even if I don't like them, because I'm not an old codger).

But people in these threads are talking like vocals as instruments are fine, but the lyrics themselves are bad, and I don't know what's better. Pop lyrics do their job of giving the singer something to sing, and they have meaning (and sometimes subtext) without being too pretentious or sounding like a middle school essay.

I'd rather listen to lyrics I don't understand.

Most of it is shit and distracting anyway when you understand it.

I'd say at maximum around 5% of music has decent lyrics. Decent in my opinion of course. Maybe I'm just a harsh critic

I just like the choreography of the live concerts.

if you know the translation do you think of the song in your head in japanese or in english

sometimes i think japanese songs in english but the words dont fit the music

>> No.10998689

Pretty much what others have said.

If you don't like the lyrics so much it can make a song that actually sounds really great get old pretty quick.

But if you don't understand it then it stays a good song much longer.
I'm learning Japanese though, I think since I'm not a native speaker I'll always be able to turn off that part of my brain that will interpret the lyrics so I can enjoy it as I do now.
But it would also be nice to be able to focus on the lyrics and be able to understand it if I want to.

I like to think of vocals as just another instrument. Doesn't matter if I understand the lyrics, as long as the voice sounds nice with the music.

I try that with eromanga. It doesn't always work. I still sometimes see the text, comprehend some stupid line and lose my boner while laughing. I get spanish or chinese versions when I really need to ignore text because not looking at the text bubbles never works
