There's a term for this... what is it? When an artist/composer uses a choir in the background and it sounds like they're speaking real words, even a foreign language, but in actuality it's made up and doesn't mean anything.

They may not be singing words, but they are singing vocalables. Idk the word your looking for, though.

The entire soundtrack is like that.

Fuck logic, that shit is boring, lame and does not always support my opinions.

^^ that's exactly what I'm talking about. Everyone always asks in YouTube comments, "where are the lyrics?" They don't really get it.

Could have sworn there was some word for that though.
