I mean, nobody expects an old guy like you, or even an old guy like me, to like Taylor Swift.  So naming Taylor Swift isn't really the point of this thread.  Get it?

Unless, UNLESS-- unless you are a huge fan of Olivia Rodrigo, and Ariana Grande, plus Katy Perry, and Lady Gaga.  But Taylor Swift is the only one you DON'T like.  Then, naming Taylor Swift, would fit the OP's thread topic.

I not a big Mahler fan, does that count?

I don't care for Bartok either in the main.

I do like Patsy Cline.  I discovered this one time walking after midnight.  But back then I was a bit crazy.

That's BOLD and interesting!

Edit to add: I'm being serious.  When I looked at my post it seemed sarcastic and snarky  but that wasn't my intent.

I think probably a lot of people did.  Similar to how a lot of people considered STP to be Pearl Jam-lite.  In both cases, I kinda get it....but also, no. 

I always liked Poison, no hate here.  I don't really hate Crue, I just don't care for their music and usually turn it off if it comes on. 
Yeah, I was really into Poison... And then I moved from 5th grade into middle school lol. I can't really opine on the 80s hair bands because it was the genre that was JUST a little too early for me personally. And I don't listen to any of it now, so I've completely lost the thread.

I consider them both to be Soundgarden Lite. :)
I kinda think of them as siblings in the same genre. Soundgarden and Pearl Jam have unique and distinct sounds. As does STP, to be honest.

AC/DC
George Throrogood

Michael Jackson
I feel like you've got the idea of the thread but I'm lacking context...

AC/DC is one of those rock groups that a ton of people love and I think there's a core group that just doesn't get it. So if you're part of that core group, I get where you're coming from. 

Thorogood I have trouble trying to figure out what "genre" he's a part of. But then I think with people of a certain generation (including me) and with people of a certain habit (drinking, also me), you'd think the whole "when I drink alone, I prefer to be by myself" and "one bourbon, one scotch, one beer" to be sort of anthems (as I do; I enjoy them). So if you feel like your peer group (people like me) love those songs and you don't, I get it. 

Michael Jackson might also be a bit of a generational thing. I grew up squarely in the MJ generation. I kinda aged out of that when I started to get into rock, but I can see how you'd look at the thread and say "my entire generation grew up idolizing MJ and I just don't get it"...

Well done.

Yes. I believe he's one of those artists that has that "it doesn't matter what kind of music you like, you HAVE to idolize Prince" level of cachet...

So it takes a little bit of balls to come into a thread like this and throw that name out there.

But I'm with @GopherRock -- maybe Prince is amazing... But the little bit of it that I've heard, it does nothing for me.

Man I really can't imagine not liking Prince.

But I also really can't stand the Rolling Stones and I'm sure there are people that don't understand how THAT is possible, so there you have it.  It takes all kinds.
