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.

More quotes by 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'm the Nickelodeon version of DangerMouse.
Bruno Mars
There will never be another Michael Jackson, a huge pop star since (the age of) 7.
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 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 really wish I knew what I was doing because I'd be writing hit songs every minute.
Bruno Mars
Hawaiian music is beautiful and simple.
Bruno Mars
I've learned people are watching, so don't do nothing stupid.
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
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
We all grew up idolizing another musician. That's how this works. That's how music is created.
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
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
No one sells a song better than the person that wrote it.
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 feel, as a songwriter, it's one of the hardest things to do - to sit down and say how you feel.
Bruno Mars
I love the Sex Pistols. I'm a big Beach Boys fan and a huge Zeppelin and Queen fan.
Bruno Mars
What I'm hoping is that every album I'm going to do will give my audience something different, and that they'll grow as I 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.'
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.
