    We call that justifying your purchase. You forced yourself into liking it so you didn’t “waste” the money.

      Haha, definitely a possibility!

      I think there’s also an element of the hit tracks often being a bit more formulaic. There’s a big component of familiarity in music that makes it appealing, so people might not appreciate the more experimental tracks on an album until they’ve heard them a few times.
