Back then people closed their eyes and listened to music. Today there's a lot of images that go with the music. A lot of music is crap and it's all commercial and the images are all trying to sell the record.

Teens think listening to music helps them concentrate. It doesn't. It relieves them of the boredom that concentration on homework induces.

I listened motionless and still And as I mounted up the hill The music in my heart I bore Long after it was heard no more.

My mother knew how to read music and everything. But I just kinda learned off of records. And so I was listening to records and I'd play 'em over and over.

This land is your land and this land is my land sure but the world is run by those that never listen to music anyway.

Sometimes before we make a record I go back and listen to a few. It's equally humbling and uplifting.

I was growing up listening to Queen. Freddie Mercury threw those incredible melodies into his songs.

So yes there's nothing I love more than listening to directors talk about their movies.

I watch and listen to movies today and am shocked by the way actors deliver their lines. Everybody mumbles now and I don't understand why.

Listen there are some movies that are set in stone and the writer or the director does not want to change but I've never worked on a movie including my own that didn't take advantage of a rehearsal process.
