We Do Express Our Emotions, Our Reactions To Events, Breakups And Infatuations, But The Way We Do That - The Art Of It - Is In Putting Them Into Prescribed Forms Or Squeezing Them Into New Forms That Perfectly Fit Some Emerging Context. That’s Part Of The Creative Process, And We Do It Instinctively; We Internalize It, Like Birds Do. And It’s A Joy To Sing, Like The Birds Do.

There's More Good Music Being Made Now Than Ever Before.

What's Been Missing From Digital Music Sales Has Been The Possibility Of Added Depth. In A Printed Package One Can Only Include So Many Images And So Much Text - For Example - But Digitally It's Wide Open. For The Most Part At The Moment We Get Less Information For Slightly Less Money - Though We Could Be Getting A Lot More.

Maybe This Is All A Bit Of A Myth, A Willful Desire To Give Each Place Its Own Unique Aura. But Doesn't Any Collective Belief Eventually Become A Kind Of Truth? If Enough People Act As If Something Is True, Isn't It Indeed "true," Not Objectively, But In The Sense That It Will Determine How They Will Behave? The Myth Of Unique Urban Character And Unique Sensibilities In Different Cities Exists Because We Want It To Exist.

I Find Rebellion Packaged By A Major Corporation A Little Hard To Take Seriously.

I'm Afraid That Reason Will Triumph And That The World Will Become A Place Where Anyone Who Doesn't Fit That Will Become Unnecessary
