Music Quotes
Neil Young, who isn't really evident when you listen to my music, is probably my favorite of the legends, besides Dylan. They're all a huge influence on me. For me, just following rock history and watching Darkness On the Edge of Town and realizing that's it's okay to be obsessed with a snare sound because Bruce Springsteen was obsessed with a snare sound.
Adam Granduciel
We were all so young, and I just think I only got there because I was hyper enthusiastic, I would work all the time because music was and still is my dream, ultimately.
Alan McGee
We grown-up people think that we appreciate music, but if we realized the sense that an infant has brought with it of appreciating sound and rhythm, we would never boast of knowing music. The infant is music itself.
Hazrat Inayat Khan
My first acting job - I used to do commercials, and I had done a couple music videos - but my first job job was 'ATL' with T.I. I auditioned for that, like, five times. I didn't have an agent. And then, from there, my life changed.
Lauren London
The music I like to play is Rock 'N Roll. I like to rock like a wild animal. I like to rock it well enough to whip a yak's ass. I love to rock it good on a horse's ass. I like to rock it real hard. I love to rock it all the way to Russia. I like to kick out the Jazz and kick it out all the way.
Wesley Willis
The great composers I worked with along the way, I always felt they were filmmakers more than composers. They would talk about the story rather than the music.
Steven Price
You gotta be, like, a professional hippie. You need to make music because you love it.
Nick Littlemore
I don't want kids listening to my music thinking it's for their parents. I want them to feel it's theirs.
Andrew Mayer Cohen
There is sweet music here that softer falls Than petals from blown roses on the grass, Or night-dews on still waters between walls Of shadowy granite, in a gleaming pass; Music that gentlier on the spirit lies, Than tir'd eyelids upon tir'd eyes; Music that brings sweet sleep down from the blissful skies. Here are cool mosses deep, And thro' the moss the ivies creep, And in the stream the long-leaved flowers weep, And from the craggy ledge the poppy hangs in sleep.
Alfred Lord Tennyson
I think we will see personalized music stations in the next few years... controlled by computer algorithms... I think it will be important that... listeners have an 'adventuresomeness' knob that will control the mix of old and new, or the mix of how far out the new music is from what they usually listen to.
Daniel Levitin
At home, we don't listen to our music-we listen to other people's music. It keeps you attached to the show business world.
Celine Dion
I stay up too late pretty much every night working on music.
Mike Posner
