Not remembering lyrics? Is this just me...

Megadeth lyrics are ridiculously hard to memorize outside of Endgame, I think. I've been trying to learn My Last Word's uh, words, for a good couple of months now by every now and then listening to the song on repeat while reading the lyrics to the song each time and as soon as I remove the lyrics I'm back to where I started from. He's just too fast and uses emphasis on strange syllables and I don't get it.

I think Mastodon lyrics are difficult to memorize for the same reasons. Listen to some of the songs on Blood Mountain (even the songs with clean vocals) and read the lyrics here and try to memorize them. The lyrics don't flow very well and don't really lead to one another like most songs.

I generally try to remember songs that have a guitar track, so I usually just make/download a custom and play it over and over (SO MANY THOUGHTS THAT I CAN'T GET OUT OF MY HEAD! I TRY TO LIVE WITHOUT YOU, EVERYTIME I DO I FEEL DEAD! If you get this reference, I'll love you forever.)

Yeah, man. I don't pay particular attention to lyrics when I listen to music. Just doesn't seem important to me. Though I agree with the fellow who only remembers rap lyrics. This is because with rap, the lyrics are pretty much the focus.

I too have an issue with remembering lyrics. I usually don't even know the choruses to my favorite songs. For myself it's definitely because I'm interested in the music and not the words. This is why I can't enjoy rap,country,other lyric based music. Not insulting those genres but they're not for me.

I'm absolute shit at memorizing lyrics, and on the songs I actually do know the lyrics to, I can't remember what order they go in, or I'll forget a line or two.
