Music Quotes
A lot of artists do music that never sees the light of day, and I know fans wanna hear it, but – sometimes – we get very selective or labels get selective about what they put out, but, nowadays, everything is digital with social media and people just wanna hear what you’re up to, what you’re doing.
Carmit Bachar
Music is pretty therapeutic.
Jamie Bell
I probably get most of my inspiration through music.
Ben Falcone
We're just nerds that play music. Because we get played on the radio and have a Vitaminwater ad with Aaron Paul dancing on a treadmill, people are going to say we sold out. I don't write music for that. I write music for me.
John Gourley
Portugal. The Man
With 'Innerspeaker' I was trying to do these hypnotic '60s grooves, but it was so hypnotic and repetitive that they sounded like they were sampled. It was making electronic sampled music but using real instruments to do it.

Tame Impala
Through the music and words we, as the band The ex, express our thoughts and opinions and ideas. It is not always totally necessary for our audience to clearly hear and understand every line I sing. The power and impact, the positive energy of the music are as much part of the whole thing as the words. We are not trying to convert people, but we believe in our music and like to play it in front of other people, hoping that we can get them as excited as we are about our music.
G.W. Sok
I love doing concert music.
Les Baxter
I did have my beginnings in doo-wop music; I had a group called the Tokens in Brooklyn. They went on, of course, to do 'The Lion Sleeps Tonight' and a lot of other great things. I went on as a soloist. But I still love doo-wop music.
Neil Sedaka
I find above all that the expression, 'atonal music,' is most unfortunate - it is on a par with calling flying 'the art of not falling,' or swimming 'the art of not drowning.'
Arnold Schoenberg
I did a 20-minute selection of scenes from the play 'Spring Awakening' in college, well before the musical came around, so when the musical was becoming a hot thing, and I was reading interviews with Duncan Sheik about how he came to do the music, I think it's interesting.
Allison Tolman
When I got into music, I wanted to learn guitar just enough to be able to write songs. I wanted to be able to express myself.
Chris Daughtry
Ninety percent of the time, when I put on my headphones, I forget to turn on my music. Literally 10 minutes will go by before I realize that there's no music.
