Re: why do you like the music you like?
[ QUOTE ]
I am a lyrics man; for example I love Aimee Mann, and I hear people complain about the production on her albums but for me it's not a big deal.
There are always exceptions, though. I have been getting into Arcade Fire recently, and their lyrics are definitely below average in a few spots, but it's forgivable since everything else about their music is so effective.
So basically I agree with your OP and have nothing to add.
edit: obviously if any one aspect is really terrible then it ruins the whole thing, but that doesn't happen too often

Hmmm...I'm a big Aimee Mann fan, too...and it's mostly 'cause of her lyrics...so I guess I AM like my brother sometimes...and I love the Arcade Fire and Tool...and couldn't tell you one line from one song...they just sound awesome.
