I never listen to lyrics initially, it's all about that bop factor, if i can jig to it then shes a winner, then it'll be years B4 I even pick up what the artist be even saying in the song at large or in small parts,
come to find that others strictly listen for lyrics, tbh I really only give Wayne that initial level of attn
I’m the same. It’s all about the beat for me
Few reasons I can think of
1) Your perspective changes, whether it's your approach to the music or knowledge of the artist or something.
2) Your initial shock is over and you can take it on its own terms. I think a lot of people have some specific ideas, consciously or not, about what music can be and so finding something that challenges that can trigger a negative response initially.
3) You just had way too high expectations for said album and you weren’t happy that said artist did something unfamiliar

literally this is anything in life time just changes perspective
i couldnt appreciate SFG the way i can now at 12 because i was 12.

Has a lot to do with where you listen and who you listen with. Some music just grows because maybe you play it in a certain point of your life where it just makes sense and you have memories attached to it
Mere-exposure effect: people develop their preferences for things simply by being exposed to them more often.
This is what caused me to like TLOP even though I had s***ted on it when it came out.
This isn’t limited to music though
You could force yourself to be attracted to a 3/10 woman if you saw her a lot.
I think once ur brain understands everything happening in the song u appreciate it more
First couple listens u might miss details or not have the melodies memorized
