More quotes by Brian McKnight
Music used to be essential and meaningful, but now it's disposable.
Brian McKnight
I was brought up to be a gentleman. That means you know how to walk, talk and dress the part.
Brian McKnight
I decided I am not going to say things I do not mean anymore.
Brian McKnight
Stevie didn't use the technology to drive the song. He used it to enhance. I use the tools to further my work, I don't use my work to further the tools.
Brian McKnight
The guy comes up to the plate, there's always a chance where he can get a grand slam and everybody forgets about all the times he missed.
Brian McKnight
I write about moments, and I don't make blanket statements about anything because no one has all the answers nobody's come up with a foolproof way to do anything when it comes to emotions.
Brian McKnight
Every song that I've done is me in one way or another.
Brian McKnight
You know, most of my career I wrote about moments in time. All of us have felt one thing or another and it didn't last very long. Now I'm drawing from real experience. It's a huge difference.

I kinda went back to that period between '88 and '94 where I felt like I was the most creative, without being hindered by powers that be. I was no longer going to try to hinder myself to what I thought was going to be on the radio.
Brian McKnight
My fans are the best in the world! They've grown up with me and stayed with me through this entire journey.
Brian McKnight
I'm never satisfied with what I do.
Brian McKnight

Brian McKnight
There's only one thing that everyone in this world has in common: whether you want to love somebody and you want to be loved in return.
Brian McKnight
I am a writer - that is what I am before being a performer or musician. I love waking up in the morning and then going to sleep that night with something that did not exist.
Brian McKnight
I'm not like a legend that - so I'm sort of in the middle in this sort of gray area where, you know, I'm creating music and I'm not saying there isn't an audience because there is because all of those people go out and spend $80 to $150 on a concert ticket.
Brian McKnight
I grew up in a time where anything was possible.
Brian McKnight
I'm creating music - it doesn't matter if anyone else likes it.
Brian McKnight
I went back and listened to the first three albums I made and tried to figure out what was special about them, why people keep going back to them. I think it was because I didn't know what I was doing. I had no idea if they were going to play it on the radio or anything. All I did was write songs, so that's what I got back to.
Brian McKnight
I was probably six years old when I first sang before an audience.
Brian McKnight
He knows I rip him off every day. He's the godfather for me. Nobody can say they aren't influenced by what Stevie Wonder has done.
