Music is critical in our lives and culture. It's the inspiration that drives us. It's also the window to our souls. It's a reflection as to who we are, what we stand for and where we're going.

There is always that one person in our lives who we deeply love, and that person can also destroy us.

That's the thing with all of us music geeks - music is the soundtrack to the things that happen in our lives, and there's music that's unique to that movie.

Music, at its essence, is what gives us memories. And the longer a song has existed in our lives, the more memories we have of it.

Our morality is based on so many factors: of where we were born, who we were born to, what values were instilled in us, what values we chose, the way that our lives have shaped us. That dictates so much of what we assume is our morality, and also the culture, all of these things.

There is a time of reckoning in all our lives.
