Music is escapism, it's entertainment.

I think that you have to bear in mind that music is about escape, and it's not unreasonable to think the music business would be based around escapism.

All music is escapism for me, but I like the way that, on a good night, that sense of escapism can be shared.

It's a crazy world, so sports and athletics and music can be a form of escapism.

Music and art and culture is escapism, and escapism sometimes is healthy for people to get away from reality. The problem is when they stay there.

I think escapism is something artists write about pretty frequently - it's something everyone can relate to, the concept of wanting something more, wanting to find solace, wanting to have something better.

I've never believed that pop music is escapist trash. There's always a darkness in it, even amidst great pop music.

Even though music is something I travel around doing, it is also a very private thing. A sort of escapism.

Escapism is survival to me.

Pop music for me was definitely escapist, but never studious.
