In a video message for an Apple Music 1 radio special titled The King’s Music Room, the British monarch said, “Throughout my life, music has meant a great deal to me. I know that is also the case for so many others.”

“It has that remarkable ability to bring happy memories flooding back from the deepest recesses of our memory, to comfort us in times of sadness and to take us to distant places,” King Charles went on.

King Charles hailed Beyonce as “incomparable” and admitted that she is “so exceptional that I could not resist including her music.” He also congratulated the Single Ladies hitmaker on her first Grammy win for Album of the Year.

The king also praised Marley, calling him a “great man.” “I remember when he came to London to perform when I was much younger, and I met him at some event,” King Charles said while recalling his meeting with the late singer.
