“What you see instead is that some of the most corrupt elements of society are found among the musicians. The drugs, the deviations and homosexuality, these type of things and all the corruption that’s there, people committing suicide,” he says. “The reality is that it in fact does carry an evil, dark side which produces that type of corruption amongst themselves and, in the end, ends up corrupting elements of the society.”

Music is a gift from God and like all his gifts, can be corrupted by sin. It is the corruption of the gift that is bad and not the gift itself. I don't let my children listen to certain types of music because I believe it is "corrupted". But that doesn't apply to all music. It takes discernment.

Is it the music or the lyrics you find objectionable? One thing I read from Rick Warren that I am inclined to agree with is that there is no unGodly music only unGodly lyrics. I not completely convinced there is no pure "music" which could be unGodly in itself but I've never been able to think of any. I guess disco comes close. ;-)
