Every generation has had some sort of focus for their unrest and discomfort with growing up. But today, the music that's in the charts is probably liked by their parents as well, and I think it's a part of youth that you need something that isn't liked or understood by the older generation.

Siouxsie Sioux

I don't think Pele was the ultimate hero for our generation, he is the ultimate hero of every generation of Brazilians.

Zico

I wanna be a part of the generation that throws out money, throws out time, throws out all that we are against something bigger than ourselves.

Jon Foreman

I'm watching the charts every week and hoping something will pop into my head.

Al Yankovic

I feel like I'm doing something in Atlanta that nobody ever did as far as rap. If it happens to end up on the top 40 or the pop charts, it doesn't mean I meant to go pop. It's just where the music took me. It started at the bottom, and it rises.

Future

Hip-Hop got turned into Hit Pop, The second a record was number one on the pop charts. But don't skip on the heart, it gotta start in the ghetto, Let no one forget about the hard part.

MC Serch

If someone throws you a good slider, you're not going to hit it. You've got to always hunt those ones that kind of pop up or hang thigh-high or up.

Aaron Judge

The Beatles and Ray Charles were in the same charts together, and that was just called pop music - it wasn't called soul or rock. The best pop music just stands out as something that's just original, and I think it should all be called pop again.

Eliza Doolittle

Every generation of children has its private hero.

Arthur Smith

Let's not bequeath the pop charts to just children.

Bono

Who's my hero? That's a great question... Well, I think my dad is my hero, because he's someone I look up to every day.

Tom Brady

If you listen to what's on the pop charts, everything is machine oriented.

Roger Glover

I could care less about the pop charts.

Eddie Rabbitt

To me, it's exciting that women are dominating the pop charts.

Carrie Brownstein

I have no aspirations of world domination through the pop charts. None at all.

Anne Hathaway

Every generation must find its mission and fulfill it, as Fanon said - or betray it. So it is not something that you can write up on the wall, saying this is what has to be done. Every generation has to discover what it needs to do.

Chinua Achebe
