You know how when you buy a CD and you don't like it at first, but then the more you listen to it the more you like it? Yeah, that's exactly what's happened to me with blues. I'm starting to like blues: I can just sit and listen to blues music, instead of before when I would only listen to it for class. Anybody else notice that blues music has started to grow on you?

I really like this analogy, and the idea behind it. A lot of it is about what we're used to, and as we become more familiar with something we appreciate it (or not) differently than we did when it was new to us.

Can you be a bit more specific about how that has changed for you? What's changed in the way you think about/respond to blues songs?
