More quotes by Chris Cornell
I've had a long career and I want to continue to have a long career. The way to do that is not to go away.
Chris Cornell
My brother brought home 'At San Quentin' when I was about 7, and we played it over and over again.
Chris Cornell
I don't ever want something that I didn't do because I was afraid of it or I didn't think I'd be good at it - within reason. Obviously I'm never going to be able to play the trumpet.
Chris Cornell
I can go from one extreme to another, from playing at the Sydney Opera House on the Songbook tour to shows with Soundgarden at Voodoo Fest, all in a week.
Chris Cornell
Maybe sincerity is the new punk. But to me, I think I have to connect with something emotionally, on some level, or I don't care about it. And if I don't care about it, then I don't think anyone listening to it will, either.
Chris Cornell
Be yourself is all that you can do.
Chris Cornell
I actually think to some degree that people are down for longer shows with an acoustic show.
Chris Cornell
I had to teach myself to let go of the conventional rock way of playing guitar and singing. Some things you wouldn't expect to work, did and some things won't ever work.
Chris Cornell
'The Beatles' did whatever they wanted. They were a collection of influences adapted to songs they wanted to write. George Harrison was instrumental in bringing in Indian music. Paul McCartney was a huge Little Richard fan. John Lennon was into minimalist aggressive rock.
Chris Cornell
In the United States, workouts tend to focus on body image and how you look. For me, it's really all about the brain.
Chris Cornell
Sometimes, if a song is written, in essence, to be that stripped down, it's very touchy when you start adding things, because even the smallest thing can have a huge impact. Somebody has to make the decision that there's a better song in there if there's less.
Chris Cornell
I play Texas Hold'em on my Blackberry. I have amassed a fortune on that. I have almost 30 million dollars from playing. It is unreal.
Chris Cornell
Led Zeppelin is just a bunch of stupid idiots who wrote cool riffs.
Chris Cornell
Due to irresolvable personality conflicts as well as musical differences, I am permanently leaving the band Audioslave. I wish the other three members nothing but the best in all of their future endeavours.
Chris Cornell
There wasn't a key moment when I knew I wanted to quit.
Chris Cornell
I don't really go to clubs so I don't know what sounds are made there.
Chris Cornell
I feel like you're not a real musician or entertainer if you can't go into a room, pick up an instrument and entertain people.
Chris Cornell
The words you say never live up to the words in your head.
Chris Cornell
I got in touch with the creative process between the age of 14 and 16, mainly because I was alone so much.
Chris Cornell
If I'm going to go out to be a solo artist, it's because I want to do something different without having to wait on someone else's schedule or hobbies or be limited by other people's prejudices. I'd be kind of stupid not to exercise that.
