I understand that many lyrics are poetry. You can even ask where to draw the line between lyrics and poetry. I just heard some really shitty music. The lyrics are poetic... I guess. but. the music is terrible.The Thermals, a Pillar of Salt.
I don't usually complain about music, but the singer has a terrible voice. There is nothing musical about it. He should stick to reading his poetry, rather than singing it.
Moral: just because the lyrics are good doesn't mean the music is worth shit. And just because the lyrics suck, the music might still be a great merit.
