People who love music, never grow up – that is my theory. The logic goes like this. A true music lover will never lose the capacity to be thrilled at hearing a new song, a new melody that is fun or poignant, and touches the heart. If a person does not have this characteristic, then it is difficult for that person to appreciate music. Now, being thrilled at something new is a hallmark characteristic of a child.
