    Sometimes. I "listen" to the vocal as an instrument, so if it sounds good then I will.

    Of course, Yes!

    Yes. I have found that its all about the rhythm. I've picked up discs from street performers all over Europe in languages I dont speak.

    I have in the past enjoyed to Buck Tick and occasionally still do.

    I don't even listen to lyrics in my native langage, so yes. But it feel weird when I think about it.

    It's really the style, mood and feelings conveyed by the song that gets me. So whatever the language as long as I can relate to it, I listen to it. I listen to loads of Japanese and Korean songs. Singers from these countries always make me feel whatever it is the song is saying even if I don't understand the words. I edit the tag of the song so that whenever I play it, I can see the lyrics both in its original language and as translated in English.

    I'm sure it's been said a few times through this thread but, Sigur Ros. Most of their songs aren't even in a real language. He just sang sounds a words that sounded good to him at the time.

    Yup - Try listening (and singing along) to The Cocteau twins. Even if you're a bloke...

    Yes. I do it all the time. As long as the rhythm is right.

    Yeah I listen to Black stuff all the time.
    Respect my lack of authority.
