Do you guys agree with that?
I most certainly do. It is of the same sentiment as my favorite music quote is:

"Words have to find a man's mind before they can touch his heart, and some men's minds are woeful small targets. Music touches their hearts directly no matter how small or stubborn the mind of the man who listens."
-Patrick Rothfuss


Effective music has a way of penetrating with ease to depths that other mediums need far more effort from the subject to reach.
