I think the experience of listening to music and reading a book definitely have important things in common. I think we recognize and cling on to a song or a written story in the same way; structure and the language (or certain rules) both mediums developed. Like analyzing the layers of a story, you can definitely take an intellectual, analytical approach to music, whether it be linguistically, semiotically or another way. Leonard Bernstein gave a series of lectures about music at Harvard called ''The Unanswered Question'' in the 70's, it's pretty interesting.Mandieta6;3763778 said:Music is morr sensory than reading though because it requires no thought or imagination. You cant read a book like you can listen to a song.

But at the end of the day, to each his own, except Zlatan who is totally wrong.

Every teenager. As an adult (or as a university student) I feel it would come off as lame to bag someone for their tastes. Naturally as a teenager/early tween (I'm 25 now, not that far off) I used to pay attention to the taste in music or movies of friends or girls I went out with, using it as a form of communication (or the opposite effect as it being a turn off), but it became largely trivial. I still talk music, movies and books naturally, but the banter (because I assume you mean banter) disappeared. I'd feel like being stuck in a high school movie if someone gave me a hard time for liking a certain movie or band, just for the sake of giving me a hard time. You're totally stuck in the Holden Caulfield phase, haha.Mandieta6;3764129 said:Surely this is something you all do. Bagging on people because of their horrible taste in movies/music/etc. is something everyone does.
