A meta-musical question

[womzilla]

In a discussion at last night's gaming session, one of my friends said, "Everyone likes music. There's no music that *everyone* likes, but everyone likes *some* music."

And I scoured my brains for a prominent, or even minor, counterexample and couldn't come up with one. supergee suggested President Ulysses S. Grant, who was quoted as saying "I only know two tunes; one is 'Yankee Doodle' and the other isn't." The UK version has Sir William S. Gilbert (of "and Sullivan") saying the same of "God Save the Queen".

So, how about it? Do you know anyone who simply doesn't like music? Are you such a person?

I recall once reading a biographical profile, I believe of a deceased 20C British political figure, which mentioned casually that he had no interest in music whatever. Can't identify it now.
