Both I guess fairly evenly. I like how they interact emotionally especially.

'Anonymous' by Tomahawk. Love how they curated and brought their own interpretation to Native American compositions. One of my favorite albums.

There's a solid rom com called 'music and lyrics' with hugh grant and drew Barrymore and it is all about this debate.
Def worth a watch!

I focus on the music more.
There are millions of words that can be used for lyrics. Mix in another language and that number increases exponentially.
With music, there are a finite number of notes/keys one can use.
So when I hear a song that sounds fresh and interesting it's because the melody is clever and inventive. Not because someone used "love" and "above" in his/her lyrics.

Spiderbait and Gotye were two Aus artists that both had great discographies but seem to get written off as one-hit-wonders overseas.

Glad to see someone brought this album by them in particular. I would d thought someone would say In the Court…but Lizard feels more cohesive conceptually.

I remember a contest held maybe 20 years ago where a fan got to have lunch with Carly and would be to who the song is about.

Music first, which includes vocal notes. I've heard cool lyrics with a lousy backing...it doesn't save the song. But cool riffs and grooves can work regardless of the lyrics.
