Music Quotes
People in my family and camp who grew up listening to rap music love 'We Are Young.' I've heard it play at weddings. I've heard it in graduation parties. It's a big idea and big song.
Janelle Monae
There's been a shift: Country music is popular music now. Every other genre wants to come over to our land.
Miranda Lambert
Since I was a child, my whole life has revolved around music. It's often while listening to a song that ideas for my fashion collections formed.
Hedi Slimane
Music does not have colour or religion. If I listen to a song, I don't care about the colour, religion, or country of the singer. It doesn't matter, even if it is in another language, because I love the music.
Adnan Sami
I just assumed the world was full of solo percussionists. I couldn't find sticks or music or anything where I was, but that was expected because there was nothing there anyway. And I think that was possibly the greatest asset for me, just not knowing.

I don't know why it is, but I just love soul music and all that old country stuff. I guess somehow my heart mixed them both together as I made my albums.

I think about music in the way that I heard music as a kid - like, Oh my god, there's this weird rubbery ball of undulating things.
Ariel Pink
Some guys that know me from when I was a kid say "My son, oh he's just like your father." It's just a natural part of our lives. But, within the music industry and within the industry of the critiques of music, where it becomes "Ziggy's music is not as good as Bob's music," I don't understand. But I don't really pay much attention to that because I'm just expressing myself.
Ziggy Marley

Music critics are, for the most part, bitter people who are intent at dragging people down for being successful at what they want to do, which is probably music. The oddity of being a critic is: You don't get a diploma, you just decide you're a critic. If someone listens to your opinion rather than their own, it's their mistake. Any critic's top 10, any year, it's something controversial or something that will make them look hipper-than-thou. The whole critic game, we've never played.
Paul Stanley
Kiss
The best music of any era lasts well, I think.
Peter Asher
