I guess I sort of enjoy music on two different levels, I do really enjoy just listening to music that has a good melody, catchy tune etc. And that's really the important part, because if it doesn't actually sound good then I'm not really interested in the technical side of it  But if it does sound good, I'm the type of person that really likes to get into it and that's when I quite enjoy finding all the technical bits of it, like interesting rhythms, style changes, etc. The interesting thing though, is how a lot of really cool parts of songs that are also very catchy are not actually that hard to play. |
I'm not saying that music shouldn't be enjoyed on a technical level. I just don't think that it's the only criteria to judge music by. The Beatles had songs that contained only one chord, and those songs were fucking amazing.
