I have to admit, most of the time I totally ignore any meaning that lyrics might have. That is, I can sing along to almost any song, and while the words are coming out I recognize them as english, but my brain refuses to parse them. When I am actually forced to do so I often have a hard time enjoying the song again, either because it's depressing (eg "3am") or meaningless (eg "Letter from an occupant"). Surprisingly I don't have much of a problem with inane (eg anything from Enya). Most of this can be traced back to how I use music - that is, I have it on constantly at work to distract the part of my brain that says "oooh, shiny...." while the rest of my brain is actually doing useful things.

Speaking of vocal stuff, is there any chance you might have a 10^100 voice invite floating around? I'm on the waiting list now... :-)
