More quotes by David Byrne
Sometimes the European and North American public like some things to be exotic and kept at arm's length. They don't want sometimes to know that foreign artists are doing something that's at least as relevant as what's being done here.
David Byrne

David Byrne
People hear about stuff from their friends or a magazine or a newspaper.
David Byrne
I love getting out of my comfort zone.
David Byrne
I don't care how impossible it seems.
David Byrne
The imminent demise of the large record companies as gatekeepers of the world's popular music is a good thing, for the most part.

Probably the reason it's a little hard to break away from the album format completely is, if you're getting a band together in the studio, it makes financial sense to do more than one song at a time.

David Byrne
I have something to say about the difference between American and European cities, but I forgot what it was. I have it written down at home somewhere.
David Byrne
I'm just wearing regular street clothes. Pretty much all the time. In the summertime, or when it gets warm out, shorts and sandals or something like that. Stuff that I don't mind getting a little sweaty.
David Byrne
I subscribe to the myth that an artist's creativity comes from torment. Once that's fixed, what do you draw on?
David Byrne
I've noticed a lot of younger artists have less fear of doing different sorts of things, whether it's various types of music, or gallery artists moving between video and sculpture and drawing.
David Byrne
London's tempo is 122.86 beats per minute.
David Byrne
Interviewer: If I gave you fifty dollars, right now, what would you do with it?David Byrne: I would get something to eat.
David Byrne
Punk was defined by an attitude rather than a musical style.
David Byrne
Singing is a trick to get people to listen to music for longer than they would ordinarily.
David Byrne
What's been missing from digital music sales has been the possibility of added depth. In a printed package one can only include so many images and so much text - for example - but digitally it's wide open.
David Byrne
If anything, a lot of electronic music is music that no one listens to at home, hardly. It's really only to be heard when everyone's out enjoying it.
David Byrne
I have trouble imagining what I could do that's beyond the practicality of what I can do.
David Byrne
