@simao I said, “that dog won’t hunt,” not, “that dog don’t bite.”  
I look forward to the edification and growth I may be so blessed to attain in a future meeting with the sage-like simao.
 

And Marjan Vahdat is a popular Persian singer ...

I guess i am not so much "snob" as i thought at first ...😊

I don't think being old has anything to do with liking or not like Swift or Gaga or any contemporary music any more than being a 20-something has anything to do with loving Nina Simone or Julie London or Jean-Luc Ponty. For you it seems more a question of style and being comfortable with what you enjoy, rather than making an effort to make room for new voices.

Forgive me for being didactic here, but it's like making friends as you get older: it's harder to do because everyone already has pretty much filled their social lives. And yet every now and then we make room. 

Like, I discovered Jasmine Sandlas, a Punjabi hip-hop artist, a few years ago and made room for her catalog in my listening. But a friend tried to get me into Muse and I just couldn't make room for them. Yet. Maybe in a few years, but probably not. 

And not to be cliche, but my mom would always blast Amalia Rodriguez when I was growing up - got me to make room for Fado early on.
