music videos

I usually don't watch music videos until much later after knowing a song. I don't intentionally avoid it but just never thought to watch music videos. Well, I guess I don't listen to the radio much either so I don't know a popular song until I hear it often in a store or people talk about it or youtubers do a cover. Music is appealing probably more for the beat and tune rather than the words. Or I hope so! Some of the lyrics or images in the music videos are quite appalling. I don't know. What are your reasons for listening to music? What makes you dance? Are music and movies really harmless? Of course I don't want to be legalistic about it either... just thinking as I often do. Sometimes a little too much haha.
