Surely it's not bland to you though, even if it's not especially groundbreaking or original. There must be something about it that grabs you if you like it.

That seems like a tall order—and one that would continuously get harder to fill the more music you're exposed to.

We definitely have very different approaches to music. For me, if there's a style of music that I haven't really given much of a chance, I'll try to find that one artist or album that clicks with me and use that as my gateway into the genre. Sometimes it doesn't take me very far, but sometimes it leads me into a whole new world of amazing music.
