The whole thing about rock music, pop music, is it's really for kids.

Pop music should be about young people.

I love pop music because you can really see what's currently happening in society.

The break down for kids is communication. Music helps bring that bond.

I grew up listening to so much different pop and stuff other than just aggressive music.

I was raised on pop music.

Pop music provides not just the soundtrack to our lives, as the cliche goes; it releases our emotions and helps us to articulate them. This is why music is so important to adolescents, who are struggling with questions of identity and self-expression.

Pop music can get inside us and enter our memory bubbles. It provides those true Proustian moments, unlocking sensations, unlocking our imaginations. Music inspired me as a filmmaker.

Pop music can absorb so many peculiar talents, ranging from the completely nonmusical poseur who just uses music as a kind of springboard for a sense of style, to people who just love putting all that complicated stuff together, brick by brick, on their computers, to people like me who like playing conceptual games and being surprised.

Pop music I have always loved best.
