I know that blindness increases the potency of your other senses to compensate; Does it make music more enjoyable to listen to? (self.Blind)

For example, can you hear individual instruments more clearly? Is it easier to tell lyrics from a song with loud instruments? I'm not sure at all what it's like, but it sounds interesting.
Maybe it's not different at all, or maybe it's so different i could never comprehend it.

Blindness does NOT increase your senses by itself. It requires training and practice to be able to use those senses.

You aren't wrong per se. If someone spent more time training their hearing, they will hear more details. Just like a musician who practices with an orchestra, they can hear more details because they've been hearing it more.
Have you ever played any first person shooters? When you first start playing a new game, you don't always recognize what the enemies look like or where they hide. But over time, you get used to it, and you can pop them in the head when they peer around a corner.

I used to play a ton of FPS when I was younger, but haven't lately (work and having a kid). But I recently started again, and it is amazing how fast those skills come back. I've run into a pitch black room and can kill enemies that are barely visible ;)
