Leon 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?
Remi Nicole: ilikemusic because... It is the best way of making you feel any emotion.
Hugo, The Maccabees: ilikemusic because... I just do. I’ve always liked music. It’s just my thing.
simon f baker: ilikemusic because... you can transcend the confines of the material world with it, it's probably better than shagging in fact. There is virtually nothing more satisfying than when a load of chords and words suddenly come together into a song ; suddenly everything in life seems to fit and make sense once more.

Chuck, Simple Plan: ilikemusic because... It was always a way to escape whatever problems I was going through; whatever trouble I had, I could just put on a record or a song and feel better right away and I hope that our music can have the same effect on our fans.Words: Chris Waugh

My mum loves to regale me with tales of how, as a young woman living and working in Liverpool in the 1960s, she would go to the Cavern Club with my auntie at lunchtime for the cheap soup-and-a-roll. There, apparently, Priscilla White (née Cilla Black) would collect the coats at the door and they would sit and watch a fledgling Beatles play to a relatively empty club.
She comments on the how wild and messy the band were when they returned from Hamburg and how she even slow danced with each of the band at some point - a fact I still find difficult to truly comprehend - and has each of their autographs to prove it.
As a massive Beatles fan I still find it hard to listen to this without being a little bit sick in the back of my mouth with jealousy.
So, imagine my delight, when the Editor of ilikemusic.com rings me up at 3pm the day after my birthday and asks me if I'd like to attend Paul McCartney's intimate iTunes Music Festival gig that night at the ICA in London for 300 press and competition winners.
