More quotes by Bruno Mars
To write a song you must have an imagination, to have an imagination you must be free.
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
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
Songwriters, you have to work - you have to wait for residuals. You have to pray that the song's going to be a hit. And then a year later, you might get a check.
Bruno Mars
You have to envision your life, and then go backwards.
Bruno Mars
Hawaii is paradise. It sounds cheesy to say it, but there's music in the air there.
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 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
Never had much faith in love or miracles, Never wanna put my heart on the line
Bruno Mars
You know, I just do whatever feels right to me! And so that's what you're gonna get!
Bruno Mars
No one sells a song better than the person that wrote it.
Bruno Mars
I'm the Nickelodeon version of DangerMouse.
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
I definitely don't plead guilty to being a heartthrob.
Bruno Mars
If perfect's what you're searching for, then just stay the same.
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.
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 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.
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 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?
