Vocals: Better with or without? - Guilmon and a shotgun - 02-01-2010
Everyone loves a good song now and then but do songs, rare as they come, without vocals sound better then that with a person singing in them? Do you believe lyrics are always applicable to a song or do you think they need to, for example, tell a story?
I personally think that music should be all about the instruments, vocals should only really be there to tell a story. By a story i don't mean a tale about getting drunk at the weekend, taking a load of drugs and ending up in bed with, say, a polar bear in a pink frock covered in sick and reeking of alcohol. I'm talking about a moving tale, perhaps about a romance, war, a fantasical goal or adventure or even something comical.
Feel free to offer your own opinion and maybe even give some examples of some really good instrumental music.

The voice is an instrument like any other. In my opinion, most songs need a voice to them. But the voice wouldn't sound very good without the music behind it.
