I have a VERY strong aversion to music. It's mostly the rhythmic component that I go to great lengths to avoid, although the sound level is also a factor. I watch muted television for fear that I will hear a theme song or music on a commercial. My family are all musicians and my children make their living as musicians. I hate that i cannot listen to their CDs and go to their gigs. I used to sing in a band and play keyboards and loved it. Now I am even afraid of stopping at a red light for fear I'll be next to someone who's car is vibrating from the unnerving bass line on their radio. Don't know how or why it started. No clue.
