We're more alike than you realize :P

Can't speak for anybody else but -- I certainly don't. My life -- and my family's lives -- pretty much revolve around music.

I don't know the answer to the question "What makes music beautiful". I presume that it's not particularly mysterious -- there are certain patterns of pitch and rhythm that evolution has disposed us to respond to, and in childhood these get coupled with exposure to music and its accompanying emotional reactions in other people.

I don't need music to be mysterious and inexplicable to love it.

You know, of course, that's crazy talk. You have to sleep and eat and you can only have 100% confirmation.
