+310 Music doesn't always need lyrics to be good. For example, I would rather listen to something unique like Ratatat than some of the cliché stuff on the radio. amirite?

youre supposed to listen to music. the biggest factor in determining if music is good is if it sounds good. meaningful lyrics definitely add to it, but should not be the largest factor in determining good music. jazz is a great genre of music. my second favorite to be honest. it has the best use of instruments, more so than rock or any other genre. but just because it has only instruments doesnt mean that it cant be deep. imo, the beat or musical parts of songs compared to he lyrical parts should have just as much interest and i guess "meaning".

I love the songs Yiruma plays. Everything is said in the melody! I love instrumental movie soundtracks too.

Exactly! People at my school think non-lyrical music is pointless, and I fail to understand why.

With some bands their instrumental songs are the best ones.

Kurt Cobain believed, "Music comes first, lyrics come second." I mean, a song can be good because of the lyrics, but you can't make shitty music better with good lyrics. You can make not so amazing lyrics amazing with good music. Some of Nirvana's lyrics were simply poetic nonsense, you gotta focus on the music and let the lyrics be the cherry on top of a kick ass song.
