When do you look for a song when listening to music?

I listen to songs based on the melody and not much on the lyrics. I like how the guitars, drums, bass and the vocals are mixed in together. So do you pay more attention to the lyrics or the song?

hi king^^;;
well, you have a point. the beat of the drums, strums of guitars and the vocalist's voice make all those beautiful melody and it's which rocks me first before i realize about the lyrics. sometimes we couldn't understand what exactly the lyrics is telling when we here the song for the first time but those music combinations already moved us.
(by the way, i think you should've not started this discussion under this Philippine category and on music instead)
happy lotting

Thanks for response. It is true that mostly we listen to melody rather than lyrics first. A good example is build me up buttercup. If your going to listen to the melody alone, you would think that the song is happy song. But if you are going to pay attention to the lyrics the song tells the sad story being abandoned and being toyed around.
I did make a mistake about the title of the discussion. It should have been what do look for in a song when listening to music. hehe
