  • BreadnButterBreadnButter: ilikemusic because... it rocks my world...
  • Leon Jean-MarieLeon Jean-Marie: ilikemusic because... It transcends. It really creates emotion with someone. That feeling it gives you, it goes through boundaries. To create something, it just breaks through all the walls. When you connect with a song, that is it, that is magic isn't it?
  • Jo WhileyJo Whiley: ilikemusic because... It makes me laugh and it makes my cry and it gets me out of a stress if I’m in a stress, and, if I’m in a good place then it will make me in a better place. It’s all about the emotion, it’s all about the feeling where music takes you to and what affect it has on you.
  • Seaney DevereuxSeaney Devereux: ilikemusic because... there's a song for every emotion and music creates debate and debate is what brings us together, it breaks down the walls that seperate sterotypes and it's always involved in your favourite youth memories.
  • Ellen, Los CampesinosEllen, Los Campesinos: ilikemusic because... It’s the best form of escapism that you can have wherever you are. You could be completely miserable or waiting for a bus and put on any song that inspires you and you can escape into a little world, well that’s what I tend to do anyway.
  • Shabee NaqviShabee Naqvi: ilikemusic because... it takes me away from the pains in life. It's the shoulder I cry on. It's the hug I crave for. It's the smile that lightens up my day...and it pulls me by the ear to a melodious heaven on earth.
  • Tom BaxterTom Baxter: ilikemusic because... It makes you feel alive more than anything else.
  • James BluntJames Blunt: ilikemusic because... conversation is so limited. It’s the best form of expression we have.

How To Choose The Right Career Path


"Sacrifice," she says. "There were many years I was skint; I had no money in my pocket, just for the love of music. I could have gone to university but I chose not to, because I had faith in what I was doing. I had part time jobs just to get train fare to get to rehearsals. I used to wear the same pair of jeans and trainers for months on end and would borrow my friend's clothes. But I didn't care, because I knew what I was trying to do was bigger than that. It's having that belief and determination."

Be Determined and Dedicated

"Be determined," advises Alesha. "I'm from a small town, Welwyn Garden City, and there's not much opportunity round there. So I had to remove myself and travel to people who were into the same things that I was."

Boyband, 365, know all about determination. All passionate about music, Andre attended the Brit School of Music, Danny went from Boss Model to musician, and Kye won a BBC urban talent content and sang with Usher.
