I can't tell if you're completely missing the point on purpose, or if you actually don't understand what I mean lol. Who said anything about Taylor Swift?
You can replace her with whatever music you associate with, what I'm getting at is your connection to it isn't real - it feels real but that's because it's coming from you, you're putting the meaning in there.
If you could erase all memory of Bach from a classical obsessives mind then play them his greatest hits and say it's from an AI they'd say 'ugly key smashing meaningless drivel' maybe they'd admit AI Brahms has some bangers but without the story behind it and the history of its significance it's not as magical.
The problem I have is people are to addicted to shortcuts, 'oh this is Bach people say he's great so this cello suite must be good therefore I like it' it's lazy and dumb. (I use Bachs cello suite as an example because it's what's on the radio but you can put any bit of music as the example)
