I understand that this is more in jest then well thought through, so please indulge me…
10: ‘Rock n Roll will save your Soul’? Either the soul doesn’t exists, and if it does how will it save the soul?… Time after time, I will catch you?
9: When the nothing in the universe explodes it was not there, and it will not be there when the universe implodes again (it is an effect, not even a brute fact)
8:Music exists? Descartes and modern scepticism might not agree, it may be an illusion
7: Many people think much music is wrong, the Classical ear find Metal abhorrent. Styles are often blamed for school shootings.
6: Music can comfort, or help you escape?
5:True, music is an abstract noun so is not capable of conscious emotion, I’ll give you that one.
4: It doesn’t? http://scholar.google.co.za/scholar?hl=en&client=firefox-a&rls=org.mozilla:en-GB:official&hs=paV&q=author:%22Capozzoli%22+intitle:%22Kids+Killing+Kids:+Managing+Violence+and+Gangs+in+Schools%22+&um=1&ie=UTF-8&oi=scholarr
3: Marylin Manson in his songs seems to care if people wanna fit in (beautiful people), try wearing a I love America Shirt to a Marylin Manson concert.
2: see point four… furthermore people have gone deaf, especially band members who do drums
1:True, cause music cant make demands
Please take this comment in the same vein that you wrote it, not being nasty, just linguistic banter

Referring to your point 10: “If you fall, I will catch you, I will be waiting, time after time”. First off, that’s a) metaphorical and b) spoken by a character IN the song, not the music itself.
otherwise, well played.
