What's in a name or a lyric for that matter? Ever wondered what was more important, the music or the words? Today's Raving Playlist provides the ability to do any number of double-blind experiments in which you can test your hypothesis as all of the songs on this particular list are relatively unintelligible. That doesn't mean they're bad songs, in fact some of them are quite good - just don't try too hard to sign along or understand what they're saying- humming might work though. As usual, you can find this list on Spotify as well.
