Capitalism Forever Posted December 19, 2009 Report Share Posted December 19, 2009 Assuming we're all adults here, how about you just listen to the music? Put on a CD of Beethoven, listen, don't think. Just listen. Do you like it? If not, you don't. You can learn to appreciate music, but you can't learn to *like* music. You like what you like, and while your tastes may change over time (even as an adult), you can't change the fact that at a particular moment you like something. Music is not a matter of thinking. Music is supposed to evoke emotions, not deep philosophical thoughts about the meaning of life. You may think such things *after* listening to something because the emotions you felt while listening prompted you to think about such matters. But that's not what I'm talking about here.

Grant Posted December 19, 2009 Report Share Posted December 19, 2009 Put on a CD of Beethoven, listen, don't think. Just listen. I'm confused. How exactly does one do that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
