In a lot of music, even if I can't understand what they're saying sometimes (Let's use "Sometimes" by MBV as an example), you might know what they're talking about just based on how their voice sounds. It's easy to tell what "Sometimes" is about thematically, really. The emotion is easily connected to you. If I can take something out of the way they speak, what they're saying doesn't matter as much as it would before.
