- Change theme
- I alone of English writers have consciously set myself to make music out of what I may call the sound of sense.
- Robert Frost on Music
- I always believed in the music we did and that's why it was uncompromising.
- Jimmy Page on Music
- I always knew I'd be in music in some sort of capacity. I didn't know if I'd be successful at it, but I knew I'd be doing something in it. Maybe get a job in a record store. Maybe even play in a band. I never got into this to be a star.
- Bryan Adams on Music
- I always preferred to hang out with the outcasts, 'cause they were cooler they had better taste in music, for one thing, I guess because they had more time to develop one with the lack of social interaction they had!
- John Hughes on Music
- I always think I'm the Tom Cruise of music - a lot of success and fans, but no critics, darling.
- Jon Bon Jovi on Music
- I always want to write erotic music... Not only about the love between men and women, but in a much more universal sense - about the sensuality of the mechanism of the universe... about life.
- Toru Takemitsu on Music
- I always wanted my music to influence the life you were living emotionally - with your family, your lover, your wife, and, at a certain point, with your children.
- Bruce Springsteen on Music
- I am happy to make money. I want to make more money, make more music, eat Big Macs and drink Budweisers.
- I am quite certain in my heart of hearts that modern music and modern art is not a conspiracy, but is a form of truth and integrity for those who practise it honestly, decently and with all their being.
- Michael Tippett on Music
- I am severely distracted these days. It's hard to sit in front of the computer, uploading bad music for hours, when you have a wonderful boyfriend who treats you like a Goddess.
- April Winchell on Music
- I am trying to walk a tightrope trying to keep the DJ community happy while trying to spread the message about dance music to more people. That is the mission that I am on.
- David Guetta on Music
- I asked my daughter when she was 16, What's the buzz on the street with the kids? She's going, to be honest, Dad, most of my friends aren't into Kiss. But they've all been told that it's the greatest show on Earth.
- Ace Frehley on Music
- I basically get stereotyped a lot in terms of being a girl and writing 'chick' music for teenage girls or something. I think, if anything, the press kind of, because of my gender and my age, tends to kind of relegate my work to this sort of special-interest group. It's part of the cultural dynamic, I guess.
- Ani DiFranco on Music
- I became a set designer for opera. I'm a great opera buff, I love classical music, and I needed a time-out.
- Maurice Sendak on Music
- I became alienated from this religious upbringing, and started making music. I wanted to be a big star. All those things I saw in the films and on the media took hold of me, and perhaps I thought this was my god: the goal of making money.
- Cat Stevens on Music
- I became interested in folk music because I had to make it somehow.

- James Taylor on Music
- I believe it is in my nature to dance by virtue of the beat of my heart, the pulse of my blood and the music in my mind.
- Robert Fulghum on Music
- I believe music should reflect yourself in some way and not just yourself at the given time. I feel that when you die or when you're going, someone's supposed to listen to that music and know everything about you. And I just try to get that across.
- I believe that music is a force in itself. It is there and it needs an outlet, a medium. In a way, we are just the medium.
- Maynard James Keenan on Music
- I believe that music is another form of news. Music is another form of journalism to me so I have to cover all the areas with my album.
- I call architecture frozen music.
- Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe on Music
- I came into music just because I wanted the bread. It's true. I looked around and this seemed like the only way I was going to get the kind of bread I wanted.
- Mick Jagger on Music
- I came through folk music simply because it was easy to get into it.
- Joni Mitchell on Music
- I can play punk rock, and I love playing punk rock, but I was into every other style of music before I played punk rock.
- Travis Barker on Music
- I can sing very comfortably from my vantage point because a lot of the music was about a loss of innocence, there's innocence contained in you but there's also innocence in the process of being lost.
- Bruce Springsteen on Music
- I can't satisfy myself with just trying to tie all of my imagination into music, especially when music is not appreciated as an art form as much as it used to be.
- Marilyn Manson on Music
- I can't think of one person I've ever met who didn't like some type of music.
- Billy Joel on Music
- I could always sing, from a really young age, but my voice was really weird. I used to make my mum turn up the radio every day in our house. She was well into music so I got that from her.
- Ellie Goulding on Music
- I dabbled in things like Howlin' Wolf, Cream and Led Zeppelin, but when I heard Son House and Robert Johnson, it blew my mind. It was something I'd been missing my whole life. That music made me discard everything else and just get down to the soul and honesty of the blues.
- Jack White on Music
- I decided to make music again at a time when I couldn't have had more obstacles.
- Marilyn Manson on Music
- I decided to pursue music, so I dropped out of school and I told my parents I didn't want any money from them. I got three jobs and I just hit the ground running.
- I didn't have nothin' going for me... school, home... until I found something I loved, which was music, and that changed everything.
- I didn't know much about him, and I wasn't a big country music fan. I listened to the Beatles and David Bowie, so I didn't know a lot about him.
- Joaquin Phoenix on Music
- I didn't really see the British punk movement, if that's what it was, as wildly original, because I had been listening so intently to all the New York music since 1973, really.
- Steven Patrick Morrissey on Music
- I didn't think it was fair to my music to label me as the daughter of somebody - I didn't think it described me very well and I didn't think it had anything to do with my music.
- Norah Jones on Music
- I didn't want to go out and change anything. I just wanted to make the music that was part of my background, which was rock and blues and hip-hop.
- I do love country music.
- I don't actually have a lot of discipline. I've worked hard at music. But I feel like you know, I felt like kind of natural at it. I always had a knack for it.
- Norah Jones on Music
- I don't care much about music. What I like is sounds.
- Dizzy Gillespie on Music
- I don't care what people say about my relationship I don't care what they say about my boobs. People are buying my songs I have a sold-out tour. I'm getting incredible feedback from my music.
- Katy Perry on Music
- I don't care what people say. My music's, my music.
- Enrique Iglesias on Music
- I don't have any real spirituality in my life - I'm kind of an atheist - but when music can take me to the highest heights, it's almost like a spiritual feeling. It fills that void for me.
- Jack Black on Music
- I don't know anything about music. In my line you don't have to.
- Elvis Presley on Music
- I don't know why, it's the same reason why you like some music and you don't like others. There's something about it that you like. Ultimately I don't find it's in my best interests to try and analyze it, since it's fundamentally emotional.
- Jerry Garcia on Music
- I don't like country music, but I don't mean to denigrate those who do. And for the people who like country music, denigrate means 'put down'.
- Bob Newhart on Music
- I don't like headphones very much, and I rarely listen to music on headphones.
- I don't like painting flowers in my music. I like painting guts and pain.
- Jonathan Davis on Music
- I don't like rap music at all. I don't think it's music. It's just a beat and rapping.
- Nina Simone on Music
- I don't like to be labeled, to be anything. I've made the mistake before myself of labeling my music, but it's counter-productive.
- Neil Young on Music
