If I were a doctor, I would prescribe that you addict yourself deeply and irrevocably to music and never, ever seek cure outside of more music. It really is the best drug available.

Having the opportunity to express myself through music has been extremely cathartic for me my entire life.

Music is therapy for me. It's my outlet for every negative thing I've ever been through. It lets me turn something bad into something beautiful.

And music has always been incredibly cathartic for me, whether it's writing my own stuff or singing other people's music; it's very freeing.

Music is a beautiful opiate, if you don't take it too seriously.

For me music is a vehicle to bring our pain to the surface, getting it back to that humble and tender spot where, with luck, it can lose its anger and become compassion again.

Music is so therapeutic for me that if I can't get it out, I start feeling bad about myself - a lot of self-loathing.

I found music to be the therapy of choice. I guess it is for a lot of people.

Music has the power to make me feel good like nothing else does. It gives me some peace for a while. Takes me back to who I really am.

Good music just makes me happy and keeps me from getting distracted.
