I agree, the "R" 's and "U" 's are for chats and etc. but I often do write wwords as they are pronounced, like " 'em " or " 'bout " or " 'cos "... I don't know why, maybe it's just an old habit... (And also, I use THX too often. It often starts to irritate people.
I think I learned English mostly from TV. That was the undryable source of English TV mush. That's where I learned most of my English. ^^ (God I so love this language)
But! I have to admit, that FINNISH artists sound much better to me. Why? Because of the lyrics. I believe, that as a Finnish person, I get much more emotions and "anything else" out of genious lyrics which are written in Finnish. I guess that's just the way it is.
Eg. Eppu Normaali - Vahingossa vain ---> "Näyt sielua suomien, takana mun luomien, läpi synkkien uomien, tie rakkauden..." Sounds freaking good! Especially "näyt silmiä suomien". You just can't get that awesome feeling in any English lyrics, that comes from that piece of sentece!! "Visions slamming my eyes" <--- Quite poor?
