3 December 2020 Pete Townshend

The problem for me, still today, is that I write purely with one dramatic structure and that is the rite of passage. I’m not really skilled in any other. Rock and roll itself can be described as music to accompany the rite of passage.

3 December 2020 David Coverdale

You know, all my songs are relatives, brothers, sisters, cousins.

3 December 2020 William Shatner

Well-written words are music.

I love 70’s music.

3 December 2020 Yoko Ono

I just go with the flow, so any style can be in my music – that makes it exciting.

3 December 2020 David Byrne

So there’s no guarantee if you like the music you will empathize with the culture and the people who made it. It doesn’t necessarily happen. I think it can, but it doesn’t necessarily happen. Which is kind of a shame.

3 December 2020 Neil Young

The thing about my music is, there really is no point.

3 December 2020 Bryan Ferry

You can never get silence anywhere nowadays, have you noticed?

3 December 2020 Buddy Holly

If anyone asks you what kind of music you play, tell him ‘pop.’ Don’t tell him ‘rock’n’roll’ or they won’t even let you in the hotel.

3 December 2020 Jonathan Davis

We’re not trying to change the world just music.

3 December 2020 Ashley Tisdale

I feel like every project I’ve ever done has had music involved in it somehow.

3 December 2020 Maynard James Keenan

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.

3 December 2020 Mel Brooks

A lot of music is mathematics. It’s balance.

3 December 2020 Shania Twain

The only reason that you do visual is solely for the visual. That’s the only reason. It doesn’t sell your music for you.

3 December 2020 James Taylor

I don’t read music. I don’t write it. So I wander around on the guitar until something starts to present itself.

3 December 2020 Alanis Morissette

Music will always be a part of my life. I love music and I don’t care how many units I sell.

3 December 2020 Karl Wilhelm Friedrich Schlegel

Mathematics is, as it were, a sensuous logic, and relates to philosophy as do the arts, music, and plastic art to poetry.

I’ve studied various schools of thought… I acknowledge that some Muslims consider music prohibited, but I’ve found a lot of evidence from the life of the Prophet to show that he allowed certainly, but even encouraged, music at certain times.

3 December 2020 Eddie Van Halen

If you want to be a rock star or just be famous, then run down the street naked, you’ll make the news or something. But if you want music to be your livelihood, then play, play, play and play! And eventually you’ll get to where you want to be.

3 December 2020 Maynard James Keenan

I think everything Joni Mitchell did for music was big.

3 December 2020 Anthony Hopkins

I’ve been composing music all my life and if I’d been clever enough at school I would like to have gone to music college.

3 December 2020 Robert Plant

Since I was a kid, I’ve had an absolute obsession with particular kinds of American music. Mississippi Delta blues of the Thirties, Chicago blues of the Fifties, West Coast music of the mid-Sixties – but I’d never really touched on dark Americana.

3 December 2020 Billy Wilder

He has Van Gogh’s ear for music.

3 December 2020 Saul Williams

I think it’s a mistake where rap music is these days. It doesn’t seem to be able to look out of the ghetto and that’s ultimately unfortunate, because it defines our limitations.

3 December 2020 W. H. Auden

No good opera plot can be sensible, for people do not sing when they are feeling sensible.

When people hear good music, it makes them homesick for something they never had, and never will have.

3 December 2020 Joan Jett
