I was pretty snobby and anal about music for a long time. I set conditions that music had to reach. Applied philosophical and intellectual scrutiny to it. Dissected it. Analysed it. And, in hindsight, took all the fun out of it.
Now I just hear something and if I like it I like it. If I don't I don't. No not liking a song because it's pop, or not liking a song because it's by an artist who it's fashionable to dislike. No conditions. No analysis. No nonsense.
And I gotta say, I now enjoy music much more. And enjoy much more music.
