Default Is it weird that I've never listened to classic metal?

Here I am, 22 years old and I've never legitimately listened to old school metal like Iron Maiden, Judas priest, Saxon, or what have you.

Most of what I listen to is very recent. Most are 21st century made and almost none of my songs are older than me.

I'm not necessarily uninterested in it, but I never came around to doing so because I find modern metal to be much more appealing and quicker to grab my attention.
Whereas when I come across classic metal I find myself forcing myself to listen because I think "I'll probably like this if I keep going" before it loses my attention and 5 minutes in I run back to my iPod and listen for hours.

Perhaps I shouldn't question my habits and just follow my ears. shrugs*
