In the early days of the COVID-19 pandemic, as the world shut down and uncertainty reigned, some of the biggest names in music came together for a series of virtual conversations.

Organized by Billboard, Rolling Stone, Variety, The New York Times, and The Guardian, the "Music's Biggest Stars Talk" series featured interviews with artists such as Billie Eilish, Taylor Swift, Elton John, and Bruce Springsteen.

The conversations covered a wide range of topics, from the impact of the pandemic on the music industry to the artists' own personal experiences during lockdown.

Here are some of the highlights from the series:

• Billie Eilish on the importance of staying connected with fans during the pandemic: "I think it's really important to just stay connected with your fans and let them know that you're there for them, even if you can't be there in person."
• Taylor Swift on the challenges of writing and recording music during lockdown: "It was definitely a challenge, but I think it also forced me to be more creative and to find new ways to express myself."
• Elton John on the power of music to bring people together: "Music has always been a way for people to connect with each other, and I think that's more important than ever right now."
• Bruce Springsteen on the importance of hope during difficult times: "We're all going through a lot right now, but we have to keep hope alive. Music can help us do that."

The "Music's Biggest Stars Talk" series was a powerful reminder of the importance of music in our lives, especially during challenging times.

It also provided a glimpse into the resilience and creativity of the music industry, which has found ways to adapt and thrive even in the face of a global pandemic.
