More quotes by Bruno Mars
Today, I'd like to talk to Bob Marley. I'd just like to ask him what was his method. Bob is one of the greatest songwriters ever. I don't know if people understand how powerful his songs are and the simplicity and genius behind them, from 'Redemption Song' to 'Is This Love?' and 'I Shot the Sheriff.'
Bruno Mars
In my songs, I'm not saying something that's never been said before. The have lyrics aren't going to blow people away. It's the emotion and the melody that drive it home.
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
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
You have to envision your life, and then go backwards.
Bruno Mars
I signed up to be a musician, I want to perform, I want to sing.
Bruno Mars
Music is not math. It's science. You keep mixing the stuff up until it blows up on you, or it becomes this incredible potion.
Bruno Mars
It's just all love. That's what music is. That's why music is created. To make people feel good, to uplift people. That's what musicians are for: to give everyone an escape, to let everyone feel good and take people out of everyday problems, so that they can hear music and sing words that are hopefully relatable.
Bruno Mars
My dad was just the king of finding these little spots for us to stay that we should never have been staying at.
Bruno Mars
My mother is a singer, my sisters all sing, my uncles are incredible singers and guitar players, so it's just kind of been like my habitat.
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
You have to be who you are, and hopefully they dig it
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.
Bruno Mars
I'm a big fan of the young 1950s Elvis when he would just go onstage and control the whole environment.
Bruno Mars
I love the Sex Pistols. I'm a big Beach Boys fan and a huge Zeppelin and Queen fan.
Bruno Mars
I grew up with so many different songs that the ones that are fun to play are the ones I want to do.
Bruno Mars
I've learned people are watching, so don't do nothing stupid.
Bruno Mars
When everything in life gets so complicated it only takes a day to change it
Bruno Mars
I could sing you a thousand and one doo-wop songs. I love the simplicity in that music. It's not super-poetic, it's just from the heart.
Bruno Mars
You can't knock on opportunity's door and not be ready.
