Good Songs With Unintelligible Lyrics

[YMIHERE]

Often one of the criticisms of rock n rock is that you can’t understand the words. At time its gone beyond criticism to suspected subversion. Convinced that Louie, Louie contained secrets subversive messages; the FBI spent millions off dollars trying to understand the lyrics. I say if it sounds good you don’t need the lyrics. What songs do you like but can’t understand the lyrics.

I agree wholeheartedly, death and black metal with all the growling is highly unintelligible. Wanna throw in some Cannibal Corpse and Children of Bodom in there dont really know whats going on but I bet its brutal.:banger: But this hardcore shit gotta go.

Anything by The Cocteau Twins


I've heard that singer Elizabeth Fraser, actually talks like that in conversation.
