it matters a lot for a significant other to be into music as much as I am. it may not necessarily be the kind of music *I* personally listen to, and I'm always open to new things (except country...). But for me, the passion has to be there and a good indicator of that is if they like music. Music is an artform, an expression, and I think the kinds of music people like says a lot about them.
Even better still, is the ability to play music. I've dated all musicians, exlcuding one guy who was really "into" music (1,000+ of cds and records). To me, music is a lifeblood. It's only natural for me to be into someone who feels the same way.
