Poll question: do you listen to the lyrics of music you're listening to?
I rarely do. I can listen to a song many times and I might be able to tell you a few words of the chorus but that's pretty much it. I really prefer that as I find lyrics to be somewhat distracting.
I've heard people tell me that they can't avoid listening to lyrics. I've noted that I end up hearing them more if the lyrics are in Swedish, so perhaps it has something to do with what your native language is?
