Music is a refuge for young people who aren't quite sure where they fit in yet. It speaks to them directly, on a personal level. They can hide in it, and not be betrayed or hurt by it. Music is something a young person can trust, that's why, when they find something they identify with, they are fiercely loyal to it. It's their friend, and in some cases, their only friend.

So, anyway, i guess I didn't really help. LOL. Just an old man rambling.
You have it downpacked Jr, my thoughts exactly pretty much except unlike me you can put thoughts into good wordage.
