This is what I meant. All-in-all it's a good thing to learn. It just becomes annoying when you can no longer enjoy music. For me, I wasn't able to enjoy music when we started analyzing it intensely, inside or outside of the classroom. I'm able to set aside the analytical side of me now to just enjoy music, though.
