Do you pay attention to all the lyrics of a song?

Here's the long and short of it:

Yes.

Best Band= Billy Talent, Coldplay
Lyrics?= Coldplay moreso, they have more of a message. I tend to follow them more closely. Billy Talent is more upbeat. there still is a message but its not really as integral to the song i find. The guitar and drums are really the BIG parts where in Coldplay the piano etc more provide support to Chris Martin (lead singer)
