I think musical taste is too subjective to try and justify. We like what we like and sometimes other people do and sometimes they don't. Just because we don't like something everyone else on the planet seems to doesn't mean we're not getting it, it just means we don't like it because it doesn't touch us in the same way. My list would probably be longer but I can only think of three off the top of my head at the moment:
Prince
The Beach Boys
Tool
I just don't get it and probably never will. I've been trying to like the Beach Boys since I can remember and nothing so I've finally given up. I chalk it up to really hating falsetto voices.
Tool I just can't stand. Never understood the appeal.
Prince I don't dislike but I think he's highly overrated as well.

If you can't be a wonderful example, be a horrifying reminder.
