I love music, but more than that, I love the artists behind the world-changing albums, songs, soundtracks… I love getting to know them even if it’s through a screen, simply watching an interview of them. It’s the closest I can get to digging into their minds and get a taste of their thoughts, mentalities, philosophies, creativity, etc. Therefore, when it comes to documentaries, I love it when it’s about an artist, living or dead, whether I am a fan of their music or not, because the one thing all musicians have in common is music. Though different, they all have creative processes they follow, they all go on a life-changing journey, and they almost all have a similar life/background. It’s thus never really about the artist per se but more about their creativity. Here is a list of my favourite music documentaries.
