> how much do you know about jazz? I live with someone who loves it and listens to a lot of it, and I am exposed (subjected) to a wide variety of the stuff at very regular intervals, much to my dislike. Also, I don't "know" about music, the very notion is weird to me. I listen to it and know how it makes me feel. What I do know is how I feel when I listen to Jazz: I don't find the experience pleasant at all: it's (to my ears) unstructured and lacks melody, and the only feeling I'm experiencing when listening to it is mild irritation. Some smooth jazz is palatable but doesn't make me feel much more than elevator muzak does.
