I used to hate Miley Cyrus’ music and her personality. Now I’m on board. I still don’t love her, but I don’t mind singing along when her music plays near me and I feel very neutral to even positive about her as a person. As far as child stars go she actually seems surprisingly normal and thoughtful.
I wasn’t a fan of ’80s pop music when it came out. But now there’s a layer of nostalgia, and the weirdness of that music is now fascinating to me. So I might not actually like it still, but now I appreciate it.
Belphegor. My friend used to listen to them in high school a lot when I was just getting into metal, and 10 years later I started giving them a go. Now I’ve been listening to them with some regularity and have some favorite songs, which also show up in my rotation regularly.
Steely Dan
Lana del Rey
I heard her a lot when born to die came out. And even listened full album. And thought “I listened to the same song 15 times” But now a fan, don’t know why.
Did you listen to hip-hop?
Almost no
Interesting, that’s why I think I liked her first album so much.

Listened to them before I got into metal, came back to them later and now love them. That’s from probably one of their more accessible records, they also have more experimental stuff like this:
I’m not sure about “enjoy”, but I’ve come to appreciate The Rolling Stones, Led Zeppelin, and U2 where I previously couldn’t see the attraction.
Babymetal, it’s early days had so much vitriol throw at them and I was right there.
Joy Division. It took several years of being a New Order fanboy before I revisited the earlier band and realized its genius.
I was the other way around! I really liked Joy Division, didn’t really care for New Order. Now I like them both, but they stimulate very different parts of my brain.
I like a lot of different types of music, my top three artists are John Prine, Leonard Cohen, and Steve Earle. I had NO idea how much I would appreciate Machine Gun Kelly.
Fall Out Boy
Slipknot.
Still don’t like the look the band has, but I like the music now.
Korn is almost the same except I still also don’t really like their music.
Volume 3 is the only album I ever really liked of theirs. Pulse of the Maggots is still a jam
Didn’t dislike them as artists, but when The Haunted released The Dead Eye, I hated it. But I kept listening and it became one of my favorites.
I couldn’t stand Linkin Park when they were first getting popular. I felt that they were too edgelord-y for me and wrote them off. Now, I wish I had actually given them a shot earlier on.
I felt similar about SOAD
The Beatles
