Did music ever have the power to change the world? The Vietnam war
wasn't ended by protest songs, it was ended when the draft was made
fair, by lottery. When the Cheneys and the Bushes (1) couldn't buy
their way out of service, the war stopped.

yes.
and it still does.
isn't your world changed when you play a song?
is your world the same when you're listening to Beethoven's 9th?
is it any different when you're listening to Eno's Music for Airports?
or The Beatle's Because?
or The Carpenters or Sinatra or whatever?
my world changes song by song.
and silence by silence.
thought by thought.
beauty by beauty.
fear by fear.
faith by faith.

yes it was.
whether those "songs" used music or not.

music is inspirational and unifying.

those people can always buy their way out of service.
drafts don't change that fact.
