The last top-40’s song I memorized after listening to it so many times was Mr Big, be with you. A basic unrequited love song without much depth. I was 14.
It was around that time that my neighbor introduced me to Nine Inch Nails,and changed the course of my musical taste forever.
For a long time I was very focused on just industrial, grunge, ska, and electronic. I eventually started expanding into prog-like music from across genres (complex melodies and instrumentation, but not just rock, ie newgrass, IDM).
Eventually I met my now-wife and, while she already shared much of my taste spectrum, she also listened to pop charting stuff, and over the years I opened back up to it. Some of its not bad if you give it a chance. Bruno Mars is a legend!

No shame in Mr Big. Paul Gilbert is a guitar hero!
Ok - almost no shame…
Ha! I don’t know enough about the band to have heard of that guy! I’ll take your word for it 😜
“Waited on a line of greens and blues (waited on a line) Just to be the next to be with you”
That line just creeps me out.
What does that even mean
