ORIGINAL: PeonForHer Exactly. For me, the human voice in songs is just another instrument ... I take in the sound of it and it may even be the key thing to my liking the song - but I don't generally listen to the lyrics for their meaning. Funny. I've always been like that. Still am - but sometimes to my regret. For instance, Hozier's 'Take Me to Church' clicked for me the first time I heard it. I put it on my party playlist straight away. It was months later before a femdom friend of mine told me that there was a clear femdom/malesub theme in it. I was astonished - I, a malesub himself, hadn't even noticed! That guy has a great voice, no question. Like Needles says, and as per her videos, it seems to have a gay theme to it. But good voice is good voice, and what I think we are both listening to is how emotion comes through the voice in a variety of aspects and situations. (If I didn't word it properly, please don't take that I find objection to the background in that song,) I remember the first record that my sister and I went halves on, The Supremes' "Love Is Like An Itching In my Heart". I remember the first words of it, but as soon as the snare drum hit the roll on top of the fifth measure, my sister's and my friends were bouncing all over the room, so all I could hear was voice qua voice after that. Years later, I would put on that song in the midst of all The Who and Led Zep records, and all the girls and more than a few of the guys instantly went berserk. A freaking fantastic record, and my sister and I "got it in one" on the first venture. I did much worse later, but that's another story.
