More quotes by Bruno Mars
I just write songs that I strongly believe in and that are coming from inside. There's no tricks. It's honesty with big melodies.
Bruno Mars
I wish I could tell you me and my rock band were traveling around, strung out. No, we were a family band. Straight Partridge Family.
Bruno Mars
Writing for other artists helped me figure out that magic you have to capture to make everyone connect with a song.
Bruno Mars
You have to envision your life, and then go backwards.
Bruno Mars
Hawaiian music is beautiful and simple.
Bruno Mars
My dad was into the 1950s doo-wop era. If you look at those groups, or at James Brown, Jackie Wilson and the Temptations in the 1960s, you'll see you had to be sharp onstage.
Bruno Mars
What I like about Elvis is the same thing I like about James Brown, Michael Jackson, Prince. These guys, back in the day, there was no smoke and mirrors. It was just raw talent. They would step out onstage and command an audience. Talk about awesome.
Bruno Mars
I got so much love for classical music and I hear so much incredible music.You should know a bunch of music and have respect for all sorts of genres and styles of music.
Bruno Mars
We all grew up idolizing another musician. That's how this works. That's how music is created.
Bruno Mars
I can put some chords together and maybe write a song, but I'm learning every day. And that's the fun part.
Bruno Mars
I think everybody don't know what color I am. It's like, He's not black enough. He's not white enough. He's got a Latin last name but he doesn't have - he doesn't speak Spanish. Who are we selling this to? Are you making urban music? Are you making pop music? What kind of music are you making?
Bruno Mars
I love the Sex Pistols. I'm a big Beach Boys fan and a huge Zeppelin and Queen fan.
Bruno Mars
My dream was to not get a day job but to sleep, wake up and do my music. I want to keep that dream forever.
Bruno Mars
I think that success is having fun.
Bruno Mars
Jimi Hendrix is the greatest guitar player in the world... a guy who mastered that instrument. It was talking when he played. And when he did a solo, he made the guitar cry - or made it sound like it was coming from the devil's amplifier.
Bruno Mars
You have to be who you are, and hopefully they dig it
Bruno Mars
It's dedicating yourself to your craft. Spending thousands of hours in a studio learning how to write a song, learning how to play different chords, training yourself to sing. You know, to get better and better.
Bruno Mars
I definitely don't plead guilty to being a heartthrob.
Bruno Mars
In pop music, the public usually see the results - the hit records, the Grammy Awards performances, the concert tours - but not all the work that goes into getting into the spotlight. And not everyone realizes that, even if you have a lot of talent, chances are you won't make it.
Bruno Mars
I don't try and be dark, but there are obviously darker emotions that I want to capture sometimes.
Bruno Mars
