More quotes by Brian May
We do play to our audience. It's very important. You can't create music in a vacuum.
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
Queen had its time and place, and at the moment I'm not concentrating on that era.
Brian May
Amazing uke playing to be relished.
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've always lived in that guitar world. I have noticed kids being more into the real essence of guitar music now.
Brian May
I'd put a lot of work into playing guitar and was thinking I was pretty damn good. But Hendrix came along and destroyed everyone.
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 don't surf the net in general. I have someone do it for me instead, because I find it sluggish.
Brian May
My children hate me being such a big star. It's very hard for them to have a father who is always in the public eye.
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
I had this idea... I wanted the sound to sing and have that thickness but yet still have an edge so that it could articulate. So my dad and I designed the guitar... the one that was made from an old fireplace.
Brian May
Astronomy's much more fun when you're not an astronomer
Brian May
Sanctions always hurt the poor, the weak, the children.
Brian May
For a time I didn't want to answer any questions about Queen. I'd like to be viewed as something alive and relevant, not some fossil.
Brian May
The guitar was my weapon, my shield to hide behind.
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
On the first few albums the songs would grow into strange shapes.
Brian May
I have to build my own boat this time. It's a big sea out there, and I have a pretty small boat. I have a lot of belief in it.
Brian May
A good video can make all the difference
