When I look at my kids, and the ease with which they pick up music, I wish I had that.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I have to tell you that I love people. When I see the kids coming up and see what they have done with the music, it's amazing.
It's important that when kids are listening to my music they don't think of it as their parent's music.
The music I always liked as a kid was stuff I could bum out to and realize, 'Hey, someone else feels that way, too.' So if someone can do that with my music, it's mission accomplished.
I have enough music coming out of my kids' bedrooms when I'm at home.
I'm just lucky because my kids are grown-up - I love them, very proud of them, and we are in close contact as big-time friends, but they don't need me that much now and I can actually enjoy this wonderful world of music.
I regularly go to concerts with my children sharing the music.
If I can help a kid discover a liking, or even a passion for music in their life, then that's a wonderful thing.
I'm perceived as someone who goes out and searches for new music, but it was all present in my household.
What we have to get clear to kids is that when you offer your stillness and open yourself to the experience of music, it pays you back more than you give.
I'm glad I had kids young because we have a strong bond and listen to the same music.
