Definitely. I think there was a point in my life where I probably would have said no. But I think my early appreciation for certain music styles with incomprehensible vocals (ie industrial, some punk & metal, etc) made me realize that lyrics aren't as important to me in music as the overall sound. In the past few years I've gotten into a lot of progressive rock from various countries, and I love it. I'd probably like it less if I could understand the lyrics, it would probably end up being some cheesy stuff.
Anyway this is a good discussion for General Music...even if you show love to a few punk bands. It's inevitable that in a discussion like this someone would post examples.
