More quotes by Brian May
I've always lived in that guitar world. I have noticed kids being more into the real essence of guitar music now.
Brian May
There are a lot of things in Queen albums that you don't expect that's why we threw them in
Brian May
What we were trying to do differently was this sort of layered sound.
Brian May
There are times when I flick through magazines and think I'm in danger of becoming a prisoner of my own hair.
Brian May
I think a lot of people would be better off in America, where at least you would find some radio station somewhere that would play you.
Brian May
I'm hopeless at playing scales. Try and be instinctive first and analytic afterwords, although it's good to study the theory of music.
Brian May
Queen songs are not about the life of a rock star - they tend to be about the lives of normal people, which is why I think the songs connect so much. We're very lucky that they seemingly connect with every generation.
Brian May
What is left of your dream? Just the words on your stone. A man who learned how to teach then forgot how to learn.
Brian May
I tend to be not a person who does everything right all the time.
Brian May
You got blood on your face, you big disgrace, waving your banner all over the place.
Brian May
I like to go for a walk or swimming or in the garden when I can. It's a busy kind of life, but I guess I'm lucky.
Brian May
I think Hammer's very cool: he has a great voice and great presence.
Brian May

Brian May
My mum says I wanted to be a surgeon, but I don't remember that. I think from the time I knew what was happening, I wanted to be a guitar player.
Brian May
I never took sheet music seriously. I could do better myself just by listening to other people and using my own intuition.
Brian May
You want to go in the steam bath to get your vocals sounding well, but you don't want your fingers to get soft.
Brian May

Brian May
A good video can make all the difference
Brian May
I think music is about our internal life. It’s part of the way people touch each other. That’s very precious to me. And astronomy is, in a sense, the very opposite thing. Instead of looking inwards, you are looking out, to things beyond our grasp.
Brian May
People have been rumouring that Queen are going to split up for the last eight years at least. I've got some great cuttings at home from people saying 'One thing is certain, Queen will no longer exist in a year's time.' And that was in 1973.
