More quotes by Bruno Mars
I can't even speak Hawaiian, but if you go there and listen to a Hawaiian song, you get captured because it's so beautiful, like the melody is just gorgeous and you know Bob Marley is on the radio every single day. It's very reggae-influenced down there. Basically, you haven't been to paradise if you haven't been to Hawaii.
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 grew up with so many different songs that the ones that are fun to play are the ones I want to do.
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.'

When everything in life gets so complicated it only takes a day to change it
Bruno Mars
We all grew up idolizing another musician. That's how this works. That's how music is created.
Bruno Mars
I want there to be a piece of me in my music, you know? I genuinely believe that's the secret of all the success that's happened (for me).
Bruno Mars
My father moved to Hawaii from Brooklyn and my mother came there as a child from the Philippines. They met at a show where my dad was playing percussion. My mom was a hula dancer.
Bruno Mars
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.
Bruno Mars
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.

You have to be who you are, and hopefully they dig it
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 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.
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
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.
Bruno Mars
A lot of people are really quick to say, That song sounds like this. Or you - He's tryin' to sound like this. And I'm always like, You're damn right I am. That's how - that's why we're all here. You know, we all grew up idolizing another musician. That's how this works. That's how music is created.

Treasure, that is what you are

You can't knock on opportunity's door and not be ready.

I signed up to be a musician, I want to perform, I want to sing.
