It's not music you can evaluate in traditional ways. If you look around at a concert, you might see what look like bored people, or maybe they're drifting, but they're just having another kind of experience, an inner thing.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
There are some people, by the way, that associate a certain amount of visualization with the performance of music. Those are people that really are not centrally concerned only with music, the traditional things.
You can say what you think music is, but the only way it really is, is how people experience it.
Music is really all about experimentation and lots of trial and error. It's just mind-numbingly boring until you hit on something that works well.
Music is such a balm. Always has been. It's such a heartbeat, like blood thrumming through the womb. That's why music appeals to people.
It's wonderful when music is intellectually stimulating. But ultimately it has to be a visceral experience.
I think it's always interesting how music means different things to different people, and people who overthink it are looking to in some ways show off with music, versus people who just respond to a song and decide to sing it.
People get comfort from music. They get joy from it and understanding from it, and most of all, the average person can't do without it in some sense.
I think music is what takes the experience off the screen into your soul, into your head.
I'm not sure it's a better music world of appreciation and performance. I think the listener is a different guy, and listening is something he does in passing, with other stuff going on. There's less care and understanding of the relationship between the song and the listener.
Music is subjective to everyone's unique experience.
