Have you mastered in art and musical theory? Then tell us who are the reigning authorities in art appreciation and critique? What are the fundamentals to art and design? Then also explain how this applies to game design...

I have never taken music or visual arts formal education, but I know people who have and who can school pretty much anyone in this thread.

Of the little I do know, there is a lot more to art than most people believe, especially in music the complexity of music theory is beyond a simple vgchartz topic.

So I'm sorry if I didn't take the courses myself  I can still disagree with people who say "art is purely subjective". That's bullshi

*shakes head*... if you can't answer even answer those basic questions, then you might as well stop now because you have no authority on this topic. Having an 'art friend' doesn't count... you have to know what you're talking about, and you don't know enough about the subject.

Even if you are correct, that art is not purely subjective, you are not educated enough on the matter to use it in an argument towards game design... it is still infact an opinion.
