I've come to realize that you live on through recordings; they're like a musical diary, a window into somebody's soul.
Music really becomes the soundtrack to the major events to your life.
I definitely associate songs with the places that I've been.
Every significant event that takes place in our lives is set to some kind of music.
You are what you eat, and you make what you hear.
I love music, and I can't imagine life without music.
Music runs my life. I can't imagine going a day without it.
Music is unique because you can get behind enemy lines a little bit, get into people's houses and into their heads, on their stereos, and win hearts and minds.
Songs are like sign posts in my life.
My songs are a time stamp for a lot of people's lives.
The way I look at it, they're all part of my musical diary, and I can listen to any one of them and it will bring up memories of what was going on at that time.
I always listen to music no matter what I'm doing. Music is definitely always something that drives the mood and creating and helps you lock that in and escape to a whole other world.
Music controls moods and accents life's moments. It's necessary for every situation.
Thanks to the greatest invention of recent years, the MP3-playing alarm clock, I can now choose the song that wakes me up in the morning.
I feel like when you make an album, it really has to hold its ground. It has to make a stamp.
Music is always a part of my characters' make-up.
We treat each album as our traces and our legacy.
Music is important.
Music is everything to me. I wake up and go to bed with it. I listen to all genres, depending on my mood.
We all know this: Music is such a fundamental part of life.
I'm surrounded by music; I always was when I was growing up and continue to be. And I love music. And when I imagine a fictional world, I imagine there's music in it for those people, too.
You know, I never did music for money. I did music to hear myself in the club, and to hear my creation on the radio.
Somebody once told me that whatever you're listening to at 30 years old is going to be what you listen to for life and that's largely true.
Musically, I have my project, '30058.' It's seven songs, like an EP or mixtape, but I call it a soundtrack because I feel like my life is a movie, and all the songs are moments in my life.
I was always into music. I think everyone is when they're a teenager, as a way to drown out the world.
