Do lyrics matter?

Depends on the music
Genres like folk are rooted in storytelling

I feel it does to a smaller extent.

Good music can justify shitty lyrics, but good lyrics can't justify shitty music.

highly disagree see Bobby Dylan

Only if you can understand them

it's distracting when they're bad and it's a negative for the song, and i enjoy it when the lyrics are good obviously. if the lyrics are just okay but fit with the tone of the song or are just there for creating a tone/atmosphere i'm cool with that too. i don't really care about them that much.

Some times its hard to notice what someone is singing. but when i do notice and the lyrics are bad, even if the music is good, i get turned off immediately.
Do lyrics matter to you?
