More quotes by Cass McCombs
Everyone wants to be well-loved and appreciated but, at the same time, there are some people that just don't want to be your friend, and there's nothing you can do or say to change that.
Cass McCombs
This is rock'n'roll, not classical music. It's about people working together.
Cass McCombs
I don't think I'm a particularly somber human being.
Cass McCombs
I wouldn't go into the studio if I didn't have a band who's ready, willing, and able.
Cass McCombs
People just wanna see someone talking about themselves constantly. I'm not interested in that.
Cass McCombs
Lyrics are my racket music is play - the fluff stuff.
Cass McCombs
To me, craft work is the ultimate. Maybe I got this idea from the autobiography of Benvenuto Cellini, who was employed as a sculptor to the state and church, making coins and things. While he admired Michelangelo, he also made fun of his spiritual angst with art.
Cass McCombs
I think it's worthwhile to expand your comfort level and just do something awful. I wasn't trying to make music for money.
Cass McCombs
I love songs because by nature they are concise they sum up. I try to use as few words as possible. It's usually funnier that way, anyway.
Cass McCombs
I've always been interested in an idea of boundless love - an impersonal, big love.
Cass McCombs
I'm not trying to write for the masses. I don't care.
Cass McCombs
I wouldn't claim to know what another person is thinking. I can imagine it, but it's my interpretation, and I try to make that clear. It's my vision of what I think their life is. I don't think there are empirical truths in that regard.
Cass McCombs
I took piano lessons when I was a little kid, but even before that, you're singing in the classroom and wherever. Gosh, children are always singing. But I took music lessons, some choir and things like that at school. I learned how to play the guitar when I was about 13... ancient history.
Cass McCombs
As it turns out, it's really expensive to make movies, much more than records.
Cass McCombs
I project love, music and love, and I pray for peace. A good song cuts straight to the heart sometimes it doesn't need to be too many lines - of course, I do love a good story.
Cass McCombs
It's the stupidest thing of all time, going on tour. It deteriorates the soul, but it's fun.
Cass McCombs
I do like the word timeless. That's a great word.
Cass McCombs
I think I prefer singing in falsetto. I like the way it sounds. It doesn't sound like my natural voice. It sounds like a character.
Cass McCombs
I don't live anywhere, so that's what's fun about tours.
Cass McCombs
I don't think I'm even a musician. I don't play a lot of instruments, not really a soloist or anything.
