Just like it's no wonder that I have no relationship with or interest in KISS. They were just never on my radar and no one around me ever played them or mentioned them, basically ever.

So, given what kinds of music I'm mostly into, there was just no way I'd go out of my way to make myself familiar with the music of Elvis. I'd need a motivation that I don't have.
You like vocalist-centric music. He made vocalist-centric music. I'd think that would be in your wheelhouse to some extent.


Anyway, what does it matter if you grew up with someone's music? I'm sure most of the music you listen to currently isn't stuff you grew up with either.
