I think music should be experienced by people all ages.

Music is an element that should be part and parcel of every child's life via the education system.

I think music needs to be presented in a way so that kids can grasp songs, dances, simple music that's associated with some particular defining moment in human experience.

Some children's music is aimed just at kids, and it can be very childlike.

There must be a law against forcing children to perform at an early age. Children should have a wonderful childhood. They should not be given too much responsibility.

If children are not introduced to music at an early age, I believe something fundamental is actually being taken from them.

Young kids should be doing music that has shock value. They'll grow out of it.

The chances of a child coming through as I did... the world is too hard. On the other hand, I would always encourage children of mine if they wanted to be in school plays and dance and sing. But I wouldn't put them to work.

I think you have to keep a childlike quality to play music or make a record.

There's always going to be a percentage of the kids out there who want to hear people who can actually play and sing.
