Kids these days don't know as much about music as they think they do.

What we have to get clear to kids is that when you offer your stillness and open yourself to the experience of music, it pays you back more than you give.

Music is the major form of communication. It's the commonest vibration, the people's news broadcast, especially for kids.

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

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.

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

Music is like the genius of humankind, universal... People who have never really taken the time to get into music, their lives are a lot smaller. Kids deserve the richness and dimension of it in their lives.

Music is such an incredible tool for kids in general. They learn discipline; they learn how to express themselves. You learn math. You learn language. It's the ideal teaching tool, and that's why it's mind-boggling when any school superintendent decides that music is something we can kind of do without.

Music is a thing that changes people's lives. It has the capacity to make young people's lives better.

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