Music vs Age

I remember when I thought the lead singer from Smashing Pumpkins sounded like a dying hyena caught in a really loud high pitched blender, but now they have got to be one of my favorite bands. Then I wondered to myself, "How could this possibly happen? How could one of my least favorite bands turn into one of my favorite bands of all time?" My guess is that music sounds different to you as you grow older. Some music you used to really like sounds like fart noises, and music that used to sound like fart noises turned into something you really like. This probably has to do with our maturity and maybe how our ears change and hear different frequencies. They must have something to do with how music sounds to us. Many girls I know absolutely adored the Jonas Brothers and High School Musical when they were 12, but now I hear them say, "How could I possibly have liked that crap?" I just hope that when I'm older I'll still like Nirvana, The Beatles, Smashing Pumpkins, Run DMC, and everything else I like, but I'm sure that some of my favorite music will change.
