Wolf, Think of it as gaining wisdom.
At my age music is the only thing that gets me excited.

I don't know if I'm alone in feeling this, and would be interested in others views.

Although I'm only 32, I seem to have lost the ability to get truly excited by new music. Don't get me wrong, I still love hearing new stuff whether it be pop, classical folk blues or whatever. I buy more CDs than I ever did, and very occasionally I'll come across something so good that I want to listen to it five times in a row. (Walter Pardon and the new REM single are 2 diverse examples)

Having said this, most of the time I find myself thinking - nice enough but I've pretty much heard that before.

Am I getting old before my time?

I hope not
