I generally consider myself nonmusical (with the exception of showtunes, which I memorize in their entirety), and have basically never had favorite artists or really listened to music just for the sake of it. Sort of like sports, I've never been able to put myself in the place of people who enjoy it as a hobby. I'm not saying I hate music or anything, I'll put on the "Oldies" spotify station sometimes if I'm doing something on the computer that doesn't require concentration, and I don't have a podcast to listen to, I have just never pursued any kind of interest in it.
I used to think that I despised the song "Down by the Water" by The Decembrists, back when I worked in a supermarket Deli and heard it about twice a day on the in-store radio. It was just at the right volume where you could only make out every fourth or fifth word and the most distinctive sound was harmonica wailing. Then the other day, I was walking by a community picnic on my way to a different job, and a small band was performing it. I was a little struck, I recognized the tune, the lyrics seemed to match, but it felt like a completely different song. It actually got stuck in my head, in a positive way.
Then last night I decided to google it to give the studio rendition another shot, and it blew me away. Free of distortion, sound correctly balanced, adequate volume, it's a hell of a song. I'm currently working my way through The Decembrist's discography. I think I've done it, I've found a current band I like.
