Music Quotes
The music is something outside myself that's also inside myself... Music and a sense of another presence always went hand in hand. Even when I was three, I would improvise music, and my maternal grandfather would act as an audience and used to applaud. I would imitate things like thunder and rain.
John Tavener
The type of music I like to sing is really those classic songs, those Barbara Streisand, Celine Dion, Frank Sinatra, classics.
Jacob Lusk
I probably won't be able to hear it until five years from now anyway. That's when I always hear my own music. It takes five years to sit down with it after not hearing it for a couple of years.
Alan Vega
I'm constantly fighting with my manager to reduce the amount of time I have to spend on promotional activities, so I can get back in the studio and work on new music.
Rivers Cuomo
Weezer
Music should elevate you. You can be raised, or left stranded. You can't be raised all the time, in my experience. This might be a rare moment. You might just go up to that level but that's always good.
Mick Jagger
The Rolling Stones
I love music, singing, and playing piano (though I'm not very good). And I adore musical theater.
Aprilynne Pike
I would like to keep going in the same direction, but with more variety. I want to use multi-cultural music. There are so many elements that we can put together. I want to mix traditional and modern. It's always so fragile. It's like when you cook, you can make a mistake. Sometimes I don't know myself what will happen at a recording session.
Albert Kuvezin
As I kid, I was always jealous of the music that my favorite bands had written - but not really of how they played. So I'd daydream about having written songs, and this way above being able to perform them.
Jonny Greenwood
Radiohead
I love every type of listening format, from MP3s to CDs to vinyl. There's something special about each one. It's a sign of the times. I love looking back, and even putting new music on vinyl - if it's right!
Brendon Urie
Panic! at the Disco
My initial training was on the keyboard - mainly the great American songbook. In junior high, during the day, I was a classical clarinetist, but after school, I played New Orleans jazz and big-band music.
Anat Cohen
You grow up listening to Eminem; your parents don't let you listen to it - you gotta sneak into a car to listen to this guy rap. He changed my whole life, my whole perspective on music, so to more or less co-sign something that I've done is the ultimate childhood goal.
Jon Bellion
Some people just can't get over their own hang-ups to listen to my music.
Jakob Dylan
