that sometimes you have to hear a song many times until you start to like it? It can “grown on you” (sp).
First time you hear it you are like “what a disappointment!”
Do you have some examples?
cheers.

I have this all the time. I am not really hating a song, but it’s nothing special though. It can take years and suddenly I fall in love with it. A recent example is ’The sweet hello, the sad goodbye’. Suddenly I absolutely adore it after... I don’t know how many years hardly noticing it even exists.

if you have to hear song many times to like it, it’s probably not too good. I think great songs and melodies jump out at you, and you can’t get enough of them. But if you have to “force” yourself to hear it with multiple listens, it’s likely the song is not that good..... or maybe “radio” forces you to.
for example, It took me only one listen to fall in love with ’It must have been love” and many other Rox songs.

When I like a song at the very first time listening to it, there is a pretty good chance I get bored with it after some time. That’s the way it is, people differ from each other.

There are some songs that take a bit to “grow” on me. Mostly because the circumstances in which I heard them didn’t make me “receptive” to the song. But I’m just weird :o)

It happened to me with Breathe. The first time I heard this song I thought it has something I don’t get. It’s like I never captured the feeling of the song. After many days or weeks, the song went straight to my heart, it’s a beautiful song. But I never thought it was a crap song, it’s just I never got into it.

One Wish is a clear example in my case. First time I played it I hated the song! Not a favorite, anyway. But now I can play it, at least.
