Have you ever heard a great song which stuck in your head for several days because the rhythm was so unique? If you are a music lover like most people this has certainly happened to you. Some songs are very easy to understand since the singers pretty much spell things out for you, however this doesn't happen in R&B, Pop and Rap genres which are quite popular.

Classic and ballad fans are usually the ones which benefit the most from the music style, songs are slow and the singers have sweet voices which are very understandable, a clear example would be the song "Close to you" by the Carpenters; this song was featured in an Asian movie which is very similar to Charlie's Angels, the way the song was used to blend perfectly with the action scene made this song very popular among those who love the Asian movies genre, regardless of how old the song actually is. Soon after this song's remake there were thousands looking for this song in iTunes, Rhapsody, etc.

Moving on from the ballad genre we have more "up-tempo" songs which fall in the soft rock music genre, these are usually easy to understand since most of ...
... these songs were recorded back in the 80's. A sample song from this genre would be "The Power of Love" by Celine Dion, this song's lyrics have been in demand ever since this song was remade and reached top popularity ranks in many countries.

Then we have the Pop/Hip-Hop/R &B genre where lyrics start to get a bit more shady in terms of vocalization, since the rhythm is a lot faster than the two genres described some words tend to be omitted in order to fit the song. This is one of the music genres which makes people hum and repeat the words they actually understood; a good sample would be "Umbrella" by Rihanna. Lovers of this genre are actually funny because they would sing the songs they like without knowing the lyrics so in the case of Umbrella they'd repeat "umbrella, eh -eh-eh, ella, ella..."

The Pop genre extends through many countries and when it comes to J-pop (japanese pop) the lyrics are certainly needed to understand what the singer is trying to say, sometimes these songs are interpreted in English and Japanese which makes things even harder for people who want to sing along. An great example of this genre is "Beautiful World" by Utada Hikaru, this song mixes both languages quite beautifully. Yet a few more examples are: Koko ni Iru yo feat. Aoyama Thelma by SoulJa and I So Wanted by Rei Fu.

If you like Dance hall, Reggae and Rap then you will definitively need to read the lyrics to even begin to understand what is being said by the singers, a good example is "Get Busy" by Sean Paul; if you have heard this song then you know just how difficult it is to understand what the singer is saying.

When looking for online lyrics, make sure to find sites which actually incorporate the videos of popular songs next to the lyrics, this will help you understand the song without having to go back and forth between your music player and the lyrics.
