You've raised the problem that the vernacular haunting art is always aligned with a heirarchical worst > best; I think where you say 'I don't have the education' all I hear is 'I feel intimidated to talk about something I enjoy'. I don't mean this as any offence to yourself, in the slightest. But a lot of people feel alienated from certain sorts of music precisely because they feel they lack the critical faculties to describe it in the lineage 'good> best'. Again, this is as much a criticism of myself as anything else.
On the other hand, if you describe art purely in adjectives then no-one is interested, and there's no bleeding human behind it.
