I want to echo what someone said about music being relatable. I completely agree with the notion of being able to "relate" to a song; the attitude, the character, the personality, the melody. That said, what I relate to has changed over time; as a teen I was into darker/weirder stuff but as I've gotten older I'm gravitating to simple, happy things that lift my mood. I have to be able to "see myself" in the song, singing the song, or dancing to the song... or being in the music video somehow. If that makes any sense.
