well, if you've never had classical or jazz blow your mind then i feel a bit sorry for you, and just because you don't like it doesn't make it terrible. there can tend to be many complex ideas and methods of delivery in those genres that a lot of people don't understand (myself included), so it makes sense that most people don't like it. it can be difficult music to listen to for the average person. these genres are basically the seeds of music as we know it. blues came directly from jazz and film scores are almost entirely classical based.
i don't like a lot of what's in those genres (or most other genres for that matter) but they hold many great songs that are simply amazing and helped me to gain a greater appreciation of music as a whole. i also do like blues and film scores and music that i don't even know how to begin to put a genre based label on, but if i typed them all out with sub-genres i may be here for a while...
