I find it can set you up for disappointment, or yes better than you expect from an already created picture. The later part can be good. Like I said, I find more quality hearing the piece as it is, enjoying it instead of focusing on puzzle fitting it in specific places which could possibly turn it redundant. The focus and originality is taken away from the actual music.

I'm a culprit of that sometimes, so I still reap the negatives.
I'm not sure I follow. Are you saying people shouldn't attempt to describe music to each other for fear of creating lofty expectations?
