I signed up to be a musician, I want to perform, I want to sing.
Bruno Mars
Image
I felt like I didn't have [any] pizzazz, and a lot of girls say I'm out of this world, so I was like I guess I'm from 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.

I love the Sex Pistols. I'm a big Beach Boys fan and a huge Zeppelin and Queen fan.
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.

I feel it's my job to continue being a student of music if I want to continue being an artist and a producer of other artists. You have to keep filling your mind with other music. You have to be ahead of the curve.

I watch the best. I'm a big fan of Elvis. I'm a big fan of 1950s Elvis when he would go on stage and scare people because he was a force and girls would go nuts! You can say the same thing for Prince or The Police. It's just guys who know that people are here to see a show, so I watch those guys and I love studying them because I'm a fan.

Whether it be a reggae song, rock song, a love song, the main thing was just to, whatever I was feeling, to try to capture that emotion.

I don't try and be dark, but there are obviously darker emotions that I want to capture sometimes.

I came to California and got signed at a young age. And it's not like you see in the movies, where you start rubbing shoulders with Timbaland and Pharrell, and you become a giant pop star.

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
Image
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

There's always a bittersweet kind of thing, but I feel like everything had to work out the way it is. Everything that had to happen, happened.

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
Image
I think I don't take myself too seriously. You know as far as, it's a fun life. I take my music serious, but I like to have fun.

Never had much faith in love or miracles, Never wanna put my heart on the line

When everything in life gets so complicated it only takes a day to change it

You aspire to be as great as Michael Jackson is as an artist. I don't think any artist in pop, rock or hip-hop has ever done it any bigger than him. You know what I mean? He's the man.
