Are you a lyrics-first or sound-first listener of music?

Read an article that depicted different music listening types.
Just this week, I bludgeoned the lyrics of 2 songs I have been listening to for decades:
(with my wife laughingly correcting me)
Your Love - The Outfield
Edge of Seventeen - Stevie Nicks
I’m sound all the way! Damn. Wife is lyrics. Makes for fun road trips. For her.

Sound. I don't give a crap about lyrics.

Both need to be good, or I move on.

The hook has to grab me first, but lyrics complete the song.

Sound first . But, the singer's voice can sometimes ruin a good sounding song.

I think the biggest lyrics-first star was Bob Dylan.
The biggest voice-first star was Judy Collins. She could sing names from a phone book and it would sound great.

I think that it is always sound first for everyone. You can still love lyrics, but they exists within a sound. Songs are like beautiful women. You like what you see first, then you discover their character.

Sound....nothing against lyrics but much of the music I enjoy doesn't have any.
