So if we were to examine a particular person's favourite songs list, would we find a certain pattern in terms of chord progression and structure of the different songs listed? If so, do different people's genetics determine what sort of sound they are into, or soley their mood and upbringing?

I have a long list of songs that I like (most of them 80s/90s alternative rock), although don't know if there is a particular reason why I like them or not.
