I really don't know anything about music, and it's no great experience for me. But I do think that music has a purifying element.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I just think music is such a beautiful thing. It lifts the heart and buoys up your spirits - all kinds of music.
It's wonderful when music is intellectually stimulating. But ultimately it has to be a visceral experience.
The thing I love about music is that you can take things that are painful, deep things that hurt you, and you can turn them into something beautiful.
I think music is what takes the experience off the screen into your soul, into your head.
It does just boil down to music.
The nature of music is mysterious and so much so that it generates strong emotions within us. It moves along passages that reach the most intimate areas of our psyche without being tried by prejudices or influences of any kind.
Music is almost mystical to me. It really has an incredibly powerful force.
Music for me is an emotional thing and it really does make me happy. It's not a tool for me to get fame or see my face in the papers or anything like that. It's about the fact that I really do enjoy it.
Music is an extraordinary vehicle for expressing emotion - very powerful emotions. That's what draws millions of people towards it. And, um, I found myself always going for these darker places and - people identify with that.
Music is something that always lifts my spirits and makes me happy, and when I make music I always hope it will have the same effect on whoever listens to it.
