Not exactly "hair on fire," but I have dumped a bit of money into fixing my problem with music "dyslexia" (blindness?). Much more detail: https://hw.leftium.com/#/item/31689274

I enjoy social dancing, but it's tragic I can't connect with the music at more than a basic level. And it makes dancing with some (more musical) partners difficult/uncomfortable.

Things I've tried:

- group dance lessons

- private dance lessons ($80+ per hour)

- books (like: https://ihatetodance.com/)

- online courses (like: https://thecharismaticvoice.com/product/music-appreciation/)

- I would pay a pretty sum for a solution ($1000?)

I am thinking of making a beat-aware video player to help me with this.

Note: some dancer "whales" easily spend over $10,000/year on their hobby. (I'm probably just a "dolphin.")
