music aversions? really?

ok, i know foods and smells can get "funny" during pregnancy, but i have been having distinct issues with certain music (which i normally really love). can it be hormonal? or am i just pissy and taking it out on anything?

it's only happening with certain things though, because last night i was cleaning and DJing for myself, and i literally sat inches away from my computer to listen to a live version of #41 by dave matthews... i had crazy goosebumps and was completely taken by the music for the entirety of the song. i mean, sure, i like dmb and i think he's amazing, but i've heard that song a million times and it never did that to me before. similarly with alanis unplugged (?!). so weird.

today, i hate regina spektor, whom i usually love. and i can't really listen to fiona apple very well. but i like the (late) beatles, a lot, and i've never really had a true "beatles" phase before.

it seems like i can only listen to really super-melodic and non-jarring music. i feel like an old lady flipping to the "easy listening" channel... lol.

i also have a lot of moments where i really want to dance! not that that's so unusual, but it's taking me at odd moments and feels like it's coming from 'deeper' inside me than before. same with the music.

i read some forums where people were talking about aversions to loud noises (and birdsong, in one case), but i couldn't find anything about specific issues with certain music. it makes sense that the two would be related though...
