There aren't reasons why you like this song or this piece of music, or don't like it. It's just, it's either right or wrong, you know?
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I cannot say what I think is right about music. I only know the rightness of it.
I find the greatest songs in the world come out of pain, and I don't like it! Here's what it does: It strips away all of your facade. It makes you so honest. It's cleansing.
One of the nice things about a favorite pop song is that it's an unconditional truce on judgment and musical snobbery. You like the song because you just do, and there need not be any further criticism.
To me, there's two types of songs, good and bad. And I just like to stick with the good ones.
The type of band that I have now, the type of music that we're playing you either like it or you dislike it. If you dislike it, you probably don't know why. By the same token, you can't even really say why you like it.
Nobody can tell you you're wrong for writing a song about how you feel - even if you don't really feel that way.
Music deals with time and timing. It's so magical, but when you get into it, every little sound and every little space between the sounds, it's critical, so critical. And if it's not there, it not only feels wrong, but it ruins things.
If rock-and-roll is well done, there's nothing so terribly wrong with that kind of music. But the lyrics are another story.
The way I feel about music is that there is no right and wrong. Only true and false.
It's not that I don't love the song. My songs are like my children: some you want around and some you want to send off to college as soon as possible.
