It used to be that way but I don't think it is any more. Music has run its course. All genres have been exhausted, and then remixed, even cross pollinated with every other genre. And now there is very little left. It's really not a problem for me, good music lives and I'm happy to listen to the music I know without ever hearing a new song. So many great bands and artists of the past that can never be outdone. The only people concerned would be the recording execs lol.

This happens. It even happend to me a few times. I remember hearing a song, thinking it was ok, but then I saw how cool the video for it was, and subconciously began to like it more.
