I suspect what's going on here is that in music, it doesn't matter if you understand it right the first time.

How many songs do you misunderstand the lyrics for on the first few listens, in your native language? For me, in English, I either can't tell exactly what they're saying for some proportion of lyrics, or just totally mishear them _quite_ often (especially depending on the genre).

Music doesn't require every word to be perfectly understandable. Communication does, ideally.
