Music, and all art, lives in the overlap between me and you. I am stuck inside this mind- it's the only perspective I will ever occupy- but when I see other people's art, it gives me an idea of what it's like in their own strange little world of per…

In my honest opinion, a society without music is a society doomed to fail. Music is not just an art, but a form of communication. And like relationships, military operations and NASA..a successful society needs communication. By the way, for those o…

I love this one, and I always remember to have from the first time I listened to it when I was 15.

Music doesn't have to be just emotions. There are different types of experiences. You have those who just hear the sounds, nothing else. You have those who feel the music and you have those who combine music with other senses, like colors or taste o…

Rap is popular because the genre is focusing on the text combined with the beat. Different criteria from classical music. Even if they sample elements from classical music. I will compare criticism of "different" music genres with being an Alien ac…

I think music is music. I don't think that music particularly hurts society, or particularly enhances it. Purely, I find it to be another way of telling a story, or a more catchy tune to a public announcement. Music can touch people the way a beauti…

C.S. Lewis once said that "Friendship is unneccesary, like philosophy, like art...it has no survival value; rather, it is one of those things that give value to survival." I think music is like that. At it's best, music makes you feel and think thin…

The place of music in society is as a form of expression. People don't always create music so that others can enjoy it, they create music because sometimes it's the only way they have of expressing what they feel.

I cooked my dinner tonight, all by myself. Well, there were the guys that grew the plants and the animals. And the ones that shipped it to the packaging factory, and the ones that produced the packaging, and the ones that worked in the packaging fac…

I'm mainly Individualistic, but I think it can only be good up to a certain point, everything needs balance. The way I see it is that if we were fully collectivist then we would all be impoverished by trying to make everybody equals because, as you…

"Use the talents you possess, for the woods would be very silent if no birds sang except the best." - Henry Van Dyke "The whole problem can be stated quite simply by asking, "Is there a meaning to music?" My answer would be, "Yes." And "Can you stat…

I think that all arts are in some way necessary to human existence. So it has a place in any human endeavor, whether we realize it or not.

I think that D'Annunzio is right, because music can now be considered a form of art, in that it can be created to play on our emotions (sorry about the pun), and, if used properly can be as beautiful as any visual art form
