Albums You Don't Like That You Should

 

Mostly I don't mind not liking music - it's just a question of taste, after all - but for some reason not liking PF has always bothered me. 

 

 

Of course, the title is meant to be provocative. To me, it means that in the case of a preponderance of listeners rating a particular album highly, outliers stand out somewhat, and the OP is soliciting which albums those are for which listeners in order to foster discussion and, possibly, comparison.

 

I interpreted it as "Albums you don't like that you feel you should" or in other words, an opinion that is contrary to the esteem in which a particular album is held, or the fact that it falls into the "I like X so I really ought to like Y but for some reason don't" category.  I know people whose musical taste I share (well, to a certain extent) that adore Pink Floyd, and I can really see why those people enjoy them so much, but they have just never moved me.  It would certainly be more convenient if I learned to love them, as my husband listens to them so often. Viewed that way, the thread makes more sense.

 

well, to me anyway - that doesn't mean it makes more sense to anyone else.

Oh, I understand the concept clearly enough, m'lady, I just don't want to play along.

Someone always has to come along and spoil the fun.  Not mentioning any names.

 

Must be something in the water up there in Michigan........hope it doesn't trickle down into Indiana.

 

 

 

 

 

ps: I actually feel basically the same way....I rarely go on others opinions about music and either I like it or I don't.

 

Not imo....this whole thing we discuss here on PA is completely subjective so there is no bad or good about what one likes or dislikes.

 

Thanks for the advice and encouragement, sublime220 - 'Octopus' here I come!
