When you like a song, is it more for the lyrics or the music?

Mine is more for the music,
if a song has good music but shitty lyrics, I usually still like it,
but if it's has super good lyrics and not so good music,
I'll just write the lyrics down and read them instead of listening.

    I love Classical Music, because I love the form, theory, mathematics, technique, rhythm, and (where relevant) orchestration of music. It's fun, and relaxing, for me to analyze the layers in a complex composition. I also love the history of music. I treat music more intellectually than emotionally, to sum it up.

    Half and half, if the music is bad I won't listen to it any more than if the lyrics suck, I only have three types of music I absolutely won't listen to: Pop; because all the lyrics suck, Country; because it literally and physically hurts my ears, and Rap; because it doesn't really have any tune.

    Depends. Pop music these days usually doesn't have amazing lyrics, so I like it because it's catchy. Then I like other songs because of the lyrics.

    Well both are important of course but I care about the lyrics a little more.
    If the lyrics are..well stupid,I don't care about the music.I will not listen to it.I believe that songs have to give a meaning to the listener.

    If lyrics were the most important thing to me about music, I would not be able to listen to anything other than English. Where's the fun in that?

    I'm a skill snob. If the music sounds like it takes no effort to play, I will probably hate it. I despise punk, rap, country and pop for this reason. Computer-arranged sound effects and "auto-tuning" are the signs of a soulless musician. I'll listen to a good instrumental a thousand times before I'll listen to a song with a good singer but mediocre musical composition.

    I like long music, without or even with lyrics. I like when music is complex and long.
    I like lyrics too in songs. I mean, what`s the point? To listen to the song just because of music while it has singing! That is stupid.
    If lyrical theme of a certain song is not a theme I like. I don`t listen to that song at all.
