Hi I was about to post my thoughts on this thread but when I read Tattie's comment: " Think I probably pay more attention to the words as I get older, though it is sometimes harder to follow them because of hearing problems, poor diction, chopping the words up around a funky rhythmic accompaniment, or just too loud accompaniment"..... it completely summed up my own view. But I don't think this is not only true in music and song. Nowadays "background music" music is becoming ever more intrusive and often we are unable to follow the dialogues. What is worse is that this music is often just strident electronic trash and does not represent the play or film. Cheers Mike L2
