Following a stroke music can be quite a lot for the brain to process which msy be why you tire easy. Try listening in small chunks & in time you’ll get back to listening to all your favourites.

I’ve managed to get images of Adam Ant mixed up with Johnny Depp they’re starting to look similar in style, though Depp is 8yrs younger

Hi
Music appreciation was one area my post stroke progress has enhanced in spades. Whether its down to the re-programming your brain undergoes and my emotions have been heightened, I don’t know. So music is an area which has benefitted. Much like the 60s flower power generation who took mind blowing drugs to ‘blow their minds’! Mine has come about by accident. Strangely, my love of all things ‘prog; (I am a child of the late 60s/70s) has diminished (too much wiggling – where’s the melody?) but love of the 60s/70s singers with backing orchestra has increased. I often get very emotional now when I hear some gorgeous singing or string orchestra (especially Vaughan Williams – I am reduced to a blubbering mess on ‘Larks Ascending’ or ‘Theme by Thomas Tallis’) or singers like Barbra Streisand or Roy Orbison.
Very strange!

Actually, the earlier Prog stuff (including Crimso) I enjoy even more now - was it called ‘underground’ then? - its more the 80s + (neo-prog?) that have lost their flavour. Never was keen on Dark Side though…
