It's a little gross to put yourself in every song. I mean, how interesting do people really think you are?
Jakob Dylan
The song is ended / But the melody lingers on.
Irving Berlin
Never hate a song that's sold a half million copies.
Irving Berlin
In the Top 40, half the songs are secret messages to the teen world to drop out, turn on, and groove with the chemicals and light shows at discotheques.
Art Linkletter
All truths, not merely ideas, but truthful faces, truthful pictures or songs, are highly beautiful.
Mahatma Gandhi
It's a tricky place, because these songs are our life and death. To have anything come between the people who buy the record and the songs themselves is really hard to hear as a musician.
Jon Foreman
We always said the goal was to make these songs famous - not our faces.
Jon Foreman
Maybe my parents were concerned that radio and TV would bring in IRA propaganda music and rebel songs to our house.
Tim Reilly
As far as my favorite songs to perform live, most of the songs we did live were my favorite. If they weren't, I would have gotten rid of them.
Johnny Ramone
I hate talking about my own songs. They're all about women anyway...
Ville Valo
Songs and Stories from Moby Dick.
Laurie Anderson
An exciting part of our existence right now is [the prospect of] getting to go out and play from 28 new songs. Normally you go out on the road and have 14 new songs to integrate into your set list, and now we have twice that, which really makes the whole thing different and more unpredictable and wild.
Anthony Kiedis
I have no problems playing (Men at Work) songs, ... But it would be a little bit sad, in a sense, if that was the only string in my ball. I play them because they're hit songs. I play them because I like the songs. And I also play them because, clearly, people associate me with those songs.
Colin Hay
If your friends are telling you to listen to these songs because they heard it from someone else, that's exactly how things catch on.
Terry Pettijohn Jr
Everybody said the same thing: 'Thanks but no thanks. Your songs just aren't hot enough for our artists to sing.
Keith Sweat
What's exciting is the ability to reach a large audience with this music, and have people who may be casual fans of The Beach Boys to realize that there's not just some fun songs there, but a major and important artist at work.
David Leaf
With sound there's a certain amount of space. It's very easy to fill that sound with noises and sounds, but it's very difficult to keep it empty and still have exciting songs.
Tomo Milicevic
We think that you shouldn't just play a bunch of songs, you should put on a show.
Ryan Shupe
When I am dead, my dearest, Sing no sad songs for me.
Christina G. Rossetti
A big section of our audience is young and female. Housewives like our love songs, but then again, everyone likes to dream about love.
Darren Hayes
It's great when you play to an audience that knows the words to all your songs, and sings them back to you.
Chris Cornell
I sat at his knee while 'Doc' played early New Orleans jazz and blues, Tin Pan Alley songs, and vaudevillian novelty numbers.
John Parker
Sometimes she's scared of how I'm going to put our relationships in songs. Relationships are like free range for lyrics, and that terrifies her.
Johnny Garcia
People love to think that you're an idiot, so I try to keep my mouth shut and act dumb. That's usually when I'm writing my songs- usually about the egomaniacs who are busy looking down at this dolt they have working for them.
Travis Gerke
I think it's the best thing I ever recorded. It's on no label, so it's an entirely independent project. We recorded a live album and DVD, the DVD has the entire testimony, the entire night on it. We couldn't put that whole thing on the CD so basically it's the songs and a little bit of talking.
Kirk Talley
The most despairing songs are the most beautiful, and I know some immortal ones that are pure tears.
Alfred De Musset
They wrote a very interesting musical score to it. It's not just old standard Western songs at all. It runs the gamut of musical types.
Ron Lambert
It's not easy. Many, many, many songs have been written about it. We wouldn't have anything to read if relationships were easy. There would be no art in the world if we actually got along.
Claire Danes
Safety in Numbers. There will be more 'songs' on this one.
Ryan Stasik
Her album is very much what she wanted to say, and it's funny going through the process with her and knowing what these songs are about and watching her mature into what she is now — an artist as opposed to an 'American Idol' winner, ... That was probably the most fun I've had on a session. She was so much fun and very laid-back, but very sincere.
Ben Moody
Most of our teachers were white, and the songs that they taught us were white, so when we first started out singing, it was really more of a glee club.
Clarence Fountain
I sometimes don't know what songs are about for several years after I've written them.
Justin Hayward
People been saying 'musical,' ... It's not like [in the movie] I'm talking and then start singing; it's a film with musical parts in it. It has brand-new Outkast songs, and it also has music from the Speakerboxxx/ The Love Below album incorporated into it as well. [The film] comes out anywhere between November and January.
Big Boi
It's not generic music. They include breaks randomly. It's a lot of little songs in one big song.
Ryan Raichilson
It's not one person [who writes the songs]... everyone definitely contributes fairly equally.
Steve Richards
We have this great legacy of songs that we share, ... It's in your bones, this wonderful music.
Andrea Marcovicci
I do not have much knowledge in western music although I love listening to Hindi music and folks songs. Grammy was never there in my wildest of dreams.
Ngawang Tashi Bapu
I compose and he doesn't compose. I cannot admire the composition of his music, only a few songs are good.
Yu Zhiliang
It's a tentative feel with him playing guitar, and the songs feel like they are coming from a true and honest .
Rick Rubin
Steve came into the meeting singing songs from the show.
Robyn Goodman
The humor in the Odd Couple is rooted in watching ordinary guys equipped with an extraordinary arsenal of zingers, ... you wonder where the songs are.
Ben Brantley
That song is personal only in that it's about home, ... I really wanted to find a song about Georgia, and I love those great story songs.
Trisha Yearwood
The greatest single portfolio of songs ever written by any one person in the history of country music.
Hank Williams
We name all the songs by listening to what it sounds like (and coming up with something). We have lots of songs and lots of names.
Jamie Janover
Three songs in the last 40 years.
John Hammond
We had fun creating the songs and basically, we made the music to make ourselves happy. It's just happy music.
Alejandro Rosso
Our choir director would always have us sing the slow, serious songs. You know, the songs that have an important message.
Blair Mays
I helped with the songwriting, yes. When I joined, we tweaked the songs. We scrapped the lyrics and melodies the other singer had written. This one is all ours.
Danny Stevens
I sang in Los Angeles recently and a band that had managed to get out of New Orleans played there. They asked me for one or to songs for a CD being recorded. My group and I said yes, we were ready to contribute in that way, the only way we have.
Miriam Makeba
This is my home. Home is where the disease is. As long as I stay in America, I'll never run out of subjects for songs.
Jello Biafra
Our play songs said that Jews were our dogs. A dog is an unclean animal in Arab culture.
Nonie Darwish
There's an 'honor table' with a box of CDs and a money jar. They cost me $2 each to make, but a lot of people are paying $20. They say, 'There's no way to pay you more for your music,' so it opens the door for people who want to balance how much value they get from the songs.
Jane Siberry
People have gotten used to listening to songs in the order they want, and they'll want to continue to do so even if they can't get the individual songs from file-trading programs.
Phil Leigh
I love when people get songs wrong. I love when people take something from a song that's totally not what I intended!
Richard Marx
We had planned to do a medley of all the songs we cut from the show during previews. But the producers just informed me that we are not closing tonight.
Lonny Price
The most important aspect of a good pep band song is the rhythm and energy it creates. Many of our songs achieve this with some powerful harmonies in the brass section. Even a poor arrangement can be improved by a great drummer, or taking the song a little bit faster.
Jeff Stegner
We've got four full songs and four ideas for others.
Matt Helders
All the signs were right. And when I mean all the sings were right, the only signs that we care about when we start a project of making a record is, do we have the songs - it's that simple.
Graham Nash
The things in my songs are the edited highlights of my life. I don't go seeking out strange sexual experiences every day of the week.
Jarvis Cocker
Everyone wants to pretend their cock is big and metal is the medium, but ultimately it's about the songs.
Ville Valo
We did what we were moved to do. We followed our guts and we just made some really heavy songs that we're having fun playing live.
Claudio Sanchez
This song has been recognized by former attorney general John Ashcroft as being very appropriate, and tells the message that needs to be heard at this time in our country. Toler also had another of his songs, 'More than a Hill,' appear nationally in the top 10 on the Southern Gospel charts with the Perry Sisters performing it.
Simon Desoto
I just couldn't sing them because I couldn't relate, ... I knew that I could be performing these songs for years and years and I didn't want to sing something I couldn't relate to.
Hope Partlow
My intention for this record was to be meaningful and relevant to what I am feeling in our own time. It started out as a collection of protest songs, but it evolved into an album about peace and freedom. If my music can cast even a shadow of peace and understanding on humanity, well, that will be pretty cool.
Keb' Mo'
We are flattered that a star of Tim McGraw's magnitude wants to dedicate one of his songs to halftime 'Monday Night Football,' ... We are thrilled to be working with him.
Fred Gaudelli
'Space Language' was born because I was carried away by an impulse to the rhythm. You'll hear these sounds throughout many songs. Now you'll be listening for it!
Hiro Hayashi
In college, I decided to listen to instrumentalists, because I knew it would help me shape what my personal style was, ... I love Donald Fagan. Steely Dan is a part of the fabric of my youth. I grew up with songs like 'FM' and 'Peg.' All those songs are gonna last forever.
Lalah Hathaway
When I make albums, I do a lot of songwriting but not necessarily a whole album. I like to listen to other songs to get a different point of view and to learn. I'm young. I have a lot to learn.
Luis Fonsi
The ridiculousness of this whole thing is that when these songs came out, Michael Jackson was nine years old and for him to have a recollection of what was going on 30 years ago, it's absurd.
Robert Meyer
'White Shadows' is one of my favorite songs on the record, ... It's just really strong rhythmically. And the fact that it's going down so well with crowds is very cool.
Guy Berryman
I don't think I'll ever go back to writing songs based on my record collection. Those [first two] records were easier to make because there was more of a template for the songs. They were dictated by what kind of music I was listening to.
Andrew Bird
I hope the Canada Pops can play in E and A. I do 'Forty Days' and 'Bo Diddley'. I don't change songs, just bands.
Ronnie Hawkins
As far as I'm concerned, songs in musicals are supposed to be great songs. I don't know if I've achieved that, but that's what I was going for.
David Yazbek
Without a doubt that song has special meaning for me because it created so many things for me that might have never been there otherwise, ... You know there are certain songs I could never leave out of the mix, and that one is certainly at the top of the list.
Alejandro Fernandez
I love the art form of songwriting. I get to carry a lot of vibes to a lot of people. My songs are all about the human condition, and people will be able to find themselves in my songs.
Glenn Hughes
I thought Brand New was awesome! I only knew a few songs before I went but they put on a great show. The audience was really into it.
Laura Gordon
We're not shy about using that name to get people out to see us, but once they're there, we hook them in with Naked Beggars songs. But we do a few Cinderella songs.
Jeff Labar
There's so much more subtlety to this new recording. There's a subtlety in the playing. There's also a subtlety in the way I approached the singing. The band was able to really capture the feeling of the songs and not really trade anything that we had sort of arranged for the live presentation, but the songs just aren't as loud.
Jason Molina
I think it's going to be really cool. I'm a big fan of the band. They have a lot of cool songs and they pretty much sound the same as they always did.
Adam Schlesinger
Chris can sing a lot of different kinds of songs, so we can cover a lot of styles. But even he has limits. We won't be covering Antonio Carlos Jobim and singing in Portuguese anytime soon.
Adam Schlesinger
And if the audience is moving in that direction, you have to move with them. I'm perfectly capable of doing that; I did it for 15 years before I got a record deal, so I'm having a blast writing these new songs.
Darryl Worley
We've got a tremendous catalog of lots of hit songs, which I wrote either a half or a third of.
Jonathan Cain
You could say, 'How does a guy who has written love songs his entire life suddenly decide to rock the boat?
Burt Bacharach
Like all of our records, good or bad, it's a diverse kind of record. It's not a heavy hit-you-over-the-head rock record. It's a dozen good songs.
Rick Nielsen
They're gracious enough to let us sing with them on the last two songs. This is an opportunity no Chorister will want to miss. It's a once in a lifetime thing for most of us.
Robert Ruggieri
Her first commitment is to Donald Trump , but her second commitment (is) writing songs for Garth Brooks .
Richard Courtney
He livened up the album. But we always do the same thing, really. It's not very interesting. That's why the more sarcastic and unusual songs stand out to people. But basically, we don't know how to make 'un-tuneful' music.
Sean Welch
I hope these songs impact people's lives in the positive, make people think about love. If people can feel something more substantive and profound, through a beautiful song, like, 'I'll Make Love to You' or 'I Said I Love You', even if for a moment, then I am happy. If they can touch that deeper place and feel a bit of what I felt when I played these songs, then I've done my job.
Kirk Whalum
'Let It Die' is more piano-based, organ-based and percussion-based. Live, the songs are more guitar-based. The record that we're doing right now is really guitar-based. I feel like finally I get to write some parts that I'll be excited to play on tour for this record.
Leslie Feist
I like them because they play a good mix of music. 'Brown Eyed Girl' is one of the songs they cover, and it's one of my favorites.
Katherine Smith
We really just wanted our songs to be anthem guitar rock with a great message. He was so awesome at capturing a moment in time and space, not concerned with making it so perfect it made it sterile.
Will Mcginniss
Losing Summer is about the songs, not about the money. We just want people to hear our music.
Adam Sullivan
I went into record some demo songs and Paul [Fitzsimmons] let me borrow one of his electric guitars, so maybe that's where I started to write a little more on the electric.
Jeff Schmutz
I don't do any songs that I'm sick of now - sometimes even songs that I request. If I'm sick of 'em I don't do 'em even for myself.
Jonathan Richman
We did a couple of acoustic songs on the first record. These (songs) just worked out for this record. I'd like to look into doing that more; we really enjoy that acoustic stuff.
Randy Huth
My state of being has been elevated, because I've been exercising, writing songs. I'm in a better frame of mind these days. It feels great -- it's like I see some light. Things make sense to me again.
Brian Wilson
We did a bunch of these mellow, kind of like sad songs. But when he came in, he said we sounded old. It wasn't about age, but I got was he was saying.
Dryden Mitchell
Making this record was such a fulfilling process, because this music and these songs are all about hope. It is through hope that we have lived and accomplished so much and with hope, we can continue to make lives better all around the world.
Albert Mazibuko
Songs From The Last Century.
George Michael
I would say a couple of songs, Solar Flare for one and Thank Your Lucky Stars , number two, are the two more overt political songs on the record.
Julissa Martinez
That's how we came up with the name, it was songs that were from the beginning of our universe as musicians.
Ricky Phillips
We're all facing the Grim Reaper, ... It's like John Denver put it in one of his songs -- 'Live, live without care.'
Scott Carpenter
I'm hoping to play some of the songs that we didn't get to play on the headline tour we just did. I think we really want to play all the songs on the new record. It's hard to choose between them, but I think we'll pick a couple that we haven't played live so far.
Dustin Kensrue
When the Second World War broke out, I felt that everyone must do his share, and began composing songs and marches for the front. But soon events assumed such gigantic and far-reaching scope as to demand larger canvasses.
Sergei Prokofiev
We want everyone going away singing good songs. We want them walking away remembering this for a while.
Steve Marek
Rather, I believe that it is very good, if, with the aid of his songs, we can be reminded, among other things, of the social conditions under which Schubert had to work.
Dietrich Fischer dieskau
Almost all our set is new songs.
Jason Stollsteimer
It has never been about me. It's about the girls. It's the songs we sing. It's about CCC and tradition.
Tom Typrowicz
Though a bit difficult, I had fun learning Tagalog. It was important to me that I learned the diction right for your sake. For mine, I had the message of the songs explained to me so I could emote it properly. In the process, Ive learned all the nasty words and how to say Nakakaloka ! What Tagalog word did I have problems with? Tandaan that we replaced with maramdaman .
Jasmine Trias
Play your two favorite songs back-to-back, and just let the music move you. That really works on days when you're low on energy.
Meg Jordan
It's a lot more warm and live sounding. It doesn't sound crystal-clear, picture-perfect. That's what we tried to avoid, so I'm glad we recorded the way we did. It feels better to us that we didn't have to use a computer to record our songs to get them perfect.
Gabe Borquez
The submissions were overwhelming. There's more writers trying to get songs into movies than you could shake a stick at.
Bill Borden
The children received a marvelous reception for their efforts. They remained standing with the chorus for the next two songs.
Dora Murray
We try to do a couple of songs off of each album we've done.
Steve Riley
It's not that I don't love the song. My songs are like my children: some you want around and some you want to send off to college as soon as possible.
Bobby Mcferrin
Danny Cox is a well-known name in Kansas among lovers of blues and jazz. His guitar playing is fluid and his singing is robust. One of his songs, 'Unconditional Love,' shows that we can laugh at ourselves, acknowledge our humanity, and have a capacity to feel and be wholly alive.
Constance Bernstein
Of course I'm glad I've become known for other things, but I'm not ashamed of my past. I look back on those times as being very exciting for me as a performer and, in fact, I still sing some of those songs today.
Maureen Mcgovern
I'm nice until I have a reason not to be. I work hard and people sense that. But I'm different things to different people. To the middle-aged housewife I'm some-one who looks like a "little boy lost"; to the people who know only One More Night and Against All Odds, I'm probably this sweet and sensitive guy. But there are many other songs, many other sides. I don't like that sickly sweet image.
Phil Collins
It's a nice mixture of songs. My dog, Miyagi, seems comforted by it. It's like leaving the TV on for him.
Debby Reilly
When we played fast songs, the mosh pit went so crazy. The audience was like lawn mowers.
Dennis Casey
We administer an exam to people and we only have about 20% who pass. If you are selected, you then go through 40 hours of training. We're adding 8,000 new songs a month.
Tim Westergren
I appreciate the additional additives and preservatives that help sell a project, but I'm sticking to what works best for me. I gotta sell the album live on stage and make people believe in the songs.
Busta Rhymes
These are not songs for women who twirl their parasols. These are songs for women who get dusty.
Jennifer Zimmerman
I relate to a lot of those songs and he keeps it country. He's almost like a Porter Wagoner.
Billy Currington
The poetry and the songs that you are suppose to write, I believe are in your heart. You just have to open up your heart and not be afraid to get them out.
Judy Collins
It was nice to be able to look at the guitar player and suggest something else, and feeling comfortable with that. We even used scratch vocals on two of the songs. That's how comfortable I felt. One of the musicians wrote one of the songs and played a couple of the instruments. He also did background vocals with me and I also did some myself. We kept it all right there in the family.
Angie Mcwhirter
The more you play with people, the more chances you're willing to take. It's an organic thing, how the songs are born. We play something and everyone starts adding to it. It's an intuitive process.
Janet Weiss
We decided the only way to make a cover record special was to do the songs that influenced us when we were younger.
Ricky Phillips
Singing Woody Guthrie songs?
Ronald Radosh
It all has to do with art - writing, painting, things I've done for a long time but just never had enough time to pursue. I have poetry - things that are designed for songs, but they're always poems first.
Jason Newsted
He's not just someone that our parents listened to. He's still around. His songs are classics. (Students are) not going to say, 'What did that guy do again?' They know exactly who he is.
Barbara Bochner
Right now we are basically learning African and Afro-Cuban rhythms. We are not really playing songs yet. We are playing rhythm, patterns and complements. Right now, we are just getting our hands on the drums to get used to the idea.
Carol Helble
We've gotten more into seamless sets of music. Two to three songs will become one long song, moving from Afro-beat to reggae and into salsa. But we keep people dancing. We've always been about giving people what they want.
Jonathan Korty
I liked all music when I was a kid: blues, rock 'n' roll, country and reggae. I don't think I can play (rock 'n' roll) any better or worse. I think it has to do with the songs I picked, the material I introduced to the mainstream.
George Thorogood
Andrew [Farriss] and Garry [Beers] and myself have been collaborating with other artists to just have a huge pool of songs ready, ... We weren't sure if [our new singer] was going to be a woman or a man, so some of the keys were written around a lady's voice and some keys were written around a guy's voice. And we just sat there madly pulling songs and J.D. goes, 'I like this one, this one's great.
Lil Jon
There was a time we decided that it was songs that were done especially from my background because of the things we were dealing with, but nowadays, anybody who has a need, and can find the need, they can sing the blues.
Ruth Brown
Same thing with 'Long Long Way to Go' . We like to think we can tell a good song from a so-so song whether it be rock, pop, blues, rap, whatever... Again, for no reason other than curiosity, it was sent to us and we really dug it, so we recorded it. Apparently so did Lionel Ritchie ! Let's not forget here that we DID write the other eleven songs on 'X' !
Joe Elliott
Some people erroneously call this a remix record, when it's really a full-blown production. We're writing songs around what she already wrote down, being inspired by her vibe. We were going off Sister Gertrude ? she was in the room with us because her spirit, her vibe is so huge, the essence of everything. She had this great message in the '60s, one that's just as relevant in 2005.
Tim Motzer
I understand these songs better than I would have 10 years ago.
Linda Eder
We were getting started about that time, so I said, hey, guys, lets play these songs.
Nick Krill
I love finding songs, going through them, tearing them apart, and seeing if I can find anything wrong with them.
Randy Travis
Quite often, if people don't want to listen to the message they will say 'Oh, but it's so musically inferior', but when you have songs that are musically sophisticated, with enormous heart and expertise and a message, that's when its hard to resist. It's great to see people of exceptional musical talent, like Paul and the musicians he works with, contributing to songs like these.
Robyn Archer
We work out songs and complicated arrangements and record them relatively quickly. There is very little jamming on the records.
Billy Sheehan
It's a lovely book. I thumb through it and find it actually of interest. . . . I had no idea that all of these things he found had affected my songs.
Robert Hunter
How Folk Songs Carry Themes of Faith.
Tom Hunter
I only record songs that I really like and believe in and can sing with conviction.
Trace Adkins
When I m old I shall give up writing the big stuff and shall wander round the park thinking of songs.
David Lloyd George
Listen, I love old Madonna songs--I don't know one person who doesn't. But we want to focus mainly on this album. I think people love it and they want to hear it, so expect a lot of the songs from Confessions on a Dance Floor .
Jamie King
We got together with him and showed him the songs we had and he helped us finish them off.
Dallas Smith
Hopefully we will make a full-length album, get signed and come back here with a few new songs. But fans can expect the same things live that we've been doing, just a little more energetic.
Patrick Mitchell
We islanders have songs to sing and stories to tell.
John Cousins
A lot of songs you write are just for exercise -- just pencil sharpeners.
Harlan Howard
It's a big project writing a new album. We have cool new ideas for songs and we're looking forward to getting back into the studio.
Mike Weiss
I instinctively knew all the songs from it (`Nanette'), such as `Tea for Two' and `I Want to Be Happy,' ... That's why the theme song of `The Boy Friend' is `I Could Be Happy With You.' I knew `happy' had to come in somewhere.
Sandy Wilson
By the end of our first practice session we had two songs completed. It was amazing progress, compared to stuff I had done in the past.
Scott Rozell
There is a long history in country music of songs celebrating drinking and lamenting drinking. Country songs for the most part have always been heavily rooted in reality. The first artists were the people next door. They would sing on their porch or in their living room or at a barn dance. They sang about what they knew, and a lot of that was drinking.
Chet Atkins
All of the songs have African rhythms and movement. The kids were dancing. Our second grade choir was used for singing as they played the instruments. It sounded really cool.
Piero Romano
I think what we realized was that we would do songs that either had a personal connection to us or a professional connection to us.
John Oates
Neil would be singing these songs for the first time ever to an audience that never heard them before. He'd be so communicative under those circumstances.
Jonathan Demme
I don't mind hearing new stuff if the new stuff is good. But if it's not good, then I just want to hear the old stuff. John Fogerty is going to be very hard pressed to write any more songs that are as good as 'Fortunate Son' and 'Green River' and 'Old Man Down The Road.' He's a hard act to follow. He's trying to follow himself.
George Thorogood
There's a category for me. I like to be referred to as a good singer of good songs in good taste.
Sarah Vaughan
The Forgotten Arm. I don't know if we'd do an acoustic thing or bring the band back or what we'd do - or if it's just time to start writing songs.
Aimee Mann
He is one of the few people who can get on a stage in an arena in front of any audience anywhere in the world and and play original songs for hours (that) everyone would be familiar with and sing along to. The list of people whose music has this power could be counted on one hand, tops.
Rick Rubin
Her last tour was kind of a greatest hits tour, and I don't think she would want to repeat all the songs. But there are a few off the list that she left out.
Liz Rosenberg
And I ask why am I black, they say I was born in sin, and shamed inequity. One of the main songs we used to sing in church makes me sick, 'love wash me and I shall be whiter than snow.
Peter Tosh
Which will do 120 songs to 250 songs depending on the size of the card.
Jay Peteranetz
I always say it's like licking icing. You appreciate [Lloyd Webber's] music more when you look at the last 20 years on Broadway, and there aren't that many songs or Broadway hits anymore, the way there used to be. It's like seeing the history of musical theater laid out for you.
Alice Ripley
Things are so deep and people are always trying to read shit into things that real simple. Some people try and tell you what the songs are about and it bores me to death.
Lars Ulrich
It was such a great thing for the kids. They came from all backgrounds, all different income levels and by the end of the session it was like, arms around each other singing camp songs.
Phil Lilienthal
I don't know what any of my songs are about, ... I don't know what I'm saying half the time, until I see it written down. It has to feel right coming out of my mouth. I can't be lying. If it sounds beautiful, that's what I need to hear.
Kristin Hersh
I've written so many songs about Englishmen, I have to go elsewhere.
Ray Davies
Creative differences. They wanted to dictate the content of the album more than we cared for, even going so far as to tell us how many tracks and how many Cajun songs we could put on it.
Linzay Young
I value my garden more for being full of blackbirds than of cherries, and very frankly give them fruit for their songs.
Joseph Addison
Our earlier stuff was a lot of short songs that were super complicated. Nothing ever repeated. It was one roller coaster after another. We felt like we kind of did that enough ... we wanted to focus on repetition and the things that we chose to repeat.
Josh Blair
We'd be singing crazy stuff — making up songs while we shot hoops just to goof around. What began as a hobby eventually became a newfound calling for the three of us.
Josh Turner
[Which is why it's spectacularly appropriate that The Funk Brothers - Motown's original house band - are opening up for Hall & Oates.] It's a great bill, ... We're carrying on their tradition. So we'll see when we get into Montreal if we're going to play a few songs together.
John Oates
For me, this is a song about love and sex. It's certainly one of the sexiest songs that I've ever heard.
