Why do we stop listening to new music as we get older?

I welcome all new or old music I have not heard before! Through Qobuz I have found 20 30 year old music that is new to me. Anything with a good guitar player is enjoyable to me.

 Just turned 77, with the Daily Discoveries streamed on Tidal, and through posts of music here on Audiogon a whole new worlld of tunes has opened up for our listening. When we find a new song we like tend to play it to death, so a constant stream of new to us songs keeps are music interest up!

@tatyana69 - well, I guess if some chap analyzed it, that settles it. End of story. 

Speak for yourself.

I have never stopped listening to new music. Beatles, Brian Eno, Led Zeppelin, Bowie, Kraftwerk, Weather Report. Were my first and second wave. At the time there were actually new inventions such as stereo recording, synthesizers, etc

Now that streaming has come around, I can go back and listen to albums I kind of remember or never had a chance to listen.

Then there is the new and other stuff I never knew up.

When i got my system set up properly, it all seemed like new music. You could tell the intention of the artist, engineer or producer. I didn’t know that was what the song really sounded like. .This is a great retirement activity I must say..
