Music can really help people, help individuals in beautiful ways.

Sometimes music can really seem like a popularity contest with beautiful people.

People want you to be beautiful and shut up. When I paint or play music, they'd rather not know about that.

That's a beautiful thing. The more successful you are, the more people are going to come and be a part of music.

Cuba is such a beautiful country, and everywhere you go, there's music and people dancing - especially in Havana.

Music can feel empowering, or it can give a natural emotional voice to something people can't express. This is why it's beautiful.

I do get a lot of gifts. I get a lot of things to sign, too. People do collect the memorabilia. Between 'Poppins' and 'The Sound of Music,' there were beautiful plates that they made, and I've signed a lot of them.

Ever since I've ever heard music, I thought it should be very clean, very precise - as clean as possible, anyway, and more or less tuned to people. Something they could understand, something that was beautiful, you know?

Banjos are used in Celtic, English folk music and obviously American music. But not that much in pop music. But it's more versatile than people realise it to be. It's a beautiful instrument, very rhythmic and melodic. You can do anything with it.

All the music I loved as a child, people thought it was junk. People were unaware of the subtext in so many of those records, but if you were a kid, you were just completely tuned in, even though you didn't always say - you wouldn't dare say it was beautiful.

We were very rich culturally. One Sunday each month, we would do this thing called Chamber Pots at somebody's house. A classical music group would come over and we'd have dinner. There were thirty people - parents and kids - and we'd sit on the floor and listen to this beautiful music.
