>Famous horrible criminals People with money have a very odd knack for getting out of prison.

FTFY. It’s not just famous people. The judicial and criminal justice system is otherwise the admission costs to behavior. Epstein and Maxwell were guilty of sex trafficking, who’s guilty of buying that service? DWI’s are for poor people. SEC fines are the costs of doing business for some, while the initial charge will be jail time for others.

I remember watching The Fountain (2006) and absolutely falling in love with the soundtrack. I did a deep dive into Clint Mansell's work and then Mogwai. At that time I strictly listened to more abrasive music and found post rock through Mogwai and that soundtrack. What an amazing genre of music.

Probably the same way I memorized the full score of Berlioz's Symphonie Fantastique or performed Escamillo in Carmen or arranged/composed 100+ songs for various jazz/vocal/rock/indie/etc ensembles lol - with a bit of time and effort. I'm very happy for you that you're so proud of yourself for having an eclectic musical knowledge, but you're far from the only person in this world (or even on this website) who does.

I hate to break it to you, but there are thousands (likely more) of people out there in this world with a deeper and more complete knowledge of music and musicians than you'll ever have. Maybe I'm one of them, maybe I'm not, but the fact that you haven't met someone like that is in no way proof that you never will, nor is it proof that they don't exist and you're the king of musical knowledge.
