I'm in the same boat as him. I have zero talent or understanding if music and art
Math comes very easily and naturally to me. Even advanced calculus felt east to learn
I couldn't sing a single song from memory. Not in a, "I'm bad at singing" way. Literally I don't remember a single song. I have memorized songs before, but it's quick to forget them, because it's just that to me - memorization
With practice and effort I can memorize songs and generally replicate patterns to make music, but that's it. It isn't really learning music
It literally is.
That's all learning music is, remembering more and more patterns, and then fucking around to see if you can combine them in interesting ways.
You all sound like you've just started, hit a chest-high wall and then went "this must be all there is! Woe is me!" instead of just climbing over the wall
