That says more about you tbh, music reaction videos are big thing and very rarely involves dancing.

When I was young, people his age used to say the same thing about the sort of music that he played.

With the exception of perhaps Lewis Capaldi, Ed Sheeran and sometimes Adele, there are very few famous artists/groups that I would listen to. Sign of the times. Artsists and groups are now brands to be sold by greedy Simon Cowells and the like. There are some excellent folk/rock artists I've heard at small festivals etc but they rarely get a look in as most of the potential customers (young folks) are glued to their phones watching rap artists talk about how they grew up on the streets with nothing and now have gold dripping off them

None of them are dancing, its just amusing to watch their faces when they realise that song they've heard all their lives is a rip-off.

That sounds no fun
Some lyrics for fellow oldsters:
We can dance if we want to
We can leave your friends behind
Because your friends don't dance
And if they don't dance
Well, they're no friends of mine

Music is basically sound conditioning.
We condition ourselves by frequently listening to music until it becomes acceptable to our brains, this is human psychological behaviour.
DJ's and radio stations know this human psychology, so they play the same records repeatedly.

In fairness at least his synopsis is a fair summary of the headline / article this time, often its complete misinterpretation.

That's not ancient music, they were only out about 5 years ago weren't they???

They seem like a very weird and artificial "thing" to me.
I find it hard to believe in many cases that the people "reacting" have never heard this stuff before.

Shouldn't that comment be in the "You Know you're getting old..." thread?
When you think something that came out 42 years ago is recent

We are listening for patterns of sounds that we have heard before, sounds that our brains can recognise and deem acceptable.
Our hearing seems to prefer the following pitch ratios, that don't oscillate with the root note too much:
1:1 unison.
2:1 octave.
3:2 perfect fifth.
4:3 perfect fourth.
5:3 major sixth.
5:4 major third.
8:5 minor sixth.
6:5 minor third.
