Are you or do you know someone who does not listen to music?

Or at least, very rarely listens.

One of my coworkers claimed she is "not really a music person". I'm not judging--there are "normal" things I'm not interested in either. But it's just unusual; I rarely come across people who have little to no interest in music and it's not easy for me to fathom what that's like.

One of my friends listens to music but has very little knowledge of anything outside of World War Two symphonic battle anthems, which is super weird. He likes other genres when I play them for him, and he often asks me what the names of songs are so he can listen to them again later, but he has virtually no knowledge of it outside of what he learns from me.

@BlueMetalChick thats... kinda weird.

@SW-User Yeah it's pretty weird. He's a very bizarre person. He's a bit of a savant, is the thing. He's not disabled; he hasn't got autism or Asperger's syndrome or anything like that, but sometimes he acts nearly like he does. He's a total war buff and can go on for hours about various battles and ranks and blah blah blah about different wars in history, but outside of that he really is pretty lost. He hasn't got many hobbies or interests or know what the hell he's doing when he's not inside the pages of a history book. Which is part of why he hangs out with me, cos I introduce him to all the stuff he normally wouldn't experience.
