The problem with listening to music today is that there's so much of it everywhere. We've got used to hearing music without actually listening to it.

I love the history of popular music. I love to know what people are listening to, even if I don't like it.

I turned popular music on the radio, and I never listened to it again after that, in about 1985. That's when I switched over to classical music, and I pretty much stayed with that since then.

Popular music sucks so bad right now.

Well, a few years ago I think I could have given you a more enthusiastic answer about that but in the last few years, for the first time in my life, I really haven't listened to much music. I used to work with music on and now I don't.

It really is, to see that this kind of music is still so popular.

Music has always been around with me.

For me, personally, the most interesting music comes from the popular sector - from film and pop music - since contemporary classical music got stuck and went into directions where it lost a lot of the public by over-intellectualizing.

I wouldn't mind being popular in other ways, but not with music.

I've got a feeling that music might not be the most interesting place to be in the world of things.
