Agreed, this discussion always comes with absurd assumptions.
Classical music will never be the most popular music, just like classic literature will never be on the best sellers list every year. That doesn't mean it isn't popular.
I ultimately became a lover of classical music for a similar reason. Most music today is so generic and bland - you can hear every song before you've finished listening to it.
- naravara 8y agoThere was a relevant and entertaining stand-up bit about this: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=JdxkVQy7QLM https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=JdxkVQy7QLM This might partly be why people love the music they heard as teens first. I hear a lot of stuff now that just seems like riffs on stuff I’ve heard before. I don’t have the nostalgia of first being exposed to it in my formative years to carry me through.
