Musicaldignity: but different people have different styles of music that bring them spiritually higher and some others can be spiritually lifted through more than one style. While it could be that for you the fast simple riffs and non stop drums of punk makes you feel one way for another person it could provide her soul with a burst of positive energy and spiritual happiness. For one person Bach is associated with the dentists chair and for another it takes him closer to hashem.

Your claim that we are invested into a particular type of music and this blinds our ability to see clearly is both irrational and condescending. It is also not true. I am not arguing for any particular style of music. I find beauty is all styles and genres. And every song that in your head you’ve categorized as Jewish started out in its base as a non Jewish tune which in your words were slapped with Jewish words.
