Music has become so ever-present in our lives. You can't walk through a shopping mall or go into a restaurant without what we used to call Muzak.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Music can be used against us as much as it can be used for us. Muzak can put a whole nation to sleep, whereas a lullaby is intended to put a child to sleep in a sweet way.
I worry that the person who thought up Muzak may be thinking up something else.
Phones and soundtracks and Muzak and fountains replace genuine and unpredictable human contact with a seamless soundtrack from a bad movie and a cliche that makes us believe we must all be happy.
I'm a mutt as far as music is concerned because I listen to everything.
There's no way that music could ever go down the tubes. I can't imagine a civilization without music. When you realize today that music is such a part of people's lives. And will always be, really.
I hate talking about music, to tell you the truth.
I've got a feeling that music might not be the most interesting place to be in the world of things.
I find there is room in music to talk with music. It may expand ways people can participate with music. It doesn't sound hokey or like some kind of voice-over.
There's almost no popular music I listen to now. I'll hear it because it's everywhere... Music is ubiquitous now.
Like all right-listening folk, I am an implacable enemy of all muzak.
