I listen to classical music at home probably more than pop music.
David Gilmour
Image
Our music has depth, and attempts philosophical thought and meaning with discussions of infinity, eternity and mortality. There is a line which people cross that turns it into some magical, mystical realm, for which I dont claim responsibility and dont hold any great truck with.
David Gilmour
Image
If people would like to come to my concerts I'd love them to come. And if they like the music that I make, I love that too. But I do not make music for other people. I make it to please myself.
David Gilmour
Image
For me, gradually over the years, you refined your tastes in the way you do things and it becomes maybe less experimental.
David Gilmour
Image
I don't live my life on the road. I'm getting on a bit and there's a lot of other things in my life. Our lovely children and their lives. It's more of a part-time business these days.
David Gilmour
Image
Obviously, they're all a gang of idiots. But, you know... live and let live.

People in Italy seem to be very capable of singing along with 'Wish You Were Here' perfectly, yet it's hard to get someone in the street who speaks english.
David Gilmour
Image
I've been in The Who, I've been in The Beatles and I've been in Pink Floyd! Top that!
David Gilmour

It's not whether God plays dice it's how God plays dice.

It's a very tempting thing to try and relive your glory days when you get a little older and you worry that people have forgotten all about you.
David Gilmour
Image
You don't want to believe everything you hear.
David Gilmour

It is an example of what films can do, how they can slip past your defenses and really break your heart.
David Gilmour
Image
I've sort of remarried a few years ago and have had a couple more children in the last couple of years. And so home life is taking up a lot of my time.
David Gilmour
Image
I tend to fly old airplanes and old sort of things that are nearly about as old as me. Biplanes and stuff like that.
David Gilmour
Image
I mean, I have moments of huge frustration because of my inability to express myself linguistically as clearly as I would like to.
David Gilmour

I remember Adrian [Maben, director] had lots of problems with red tape and dealing with stuff. I think we lost two or three days. Maybe those were the days we had to walk around the summit of Vesuvius, and we went around to the sulfur pits where the ground is bubbling. It's near here. It's fantastic.

My technique is laughable at times. I have developed a style of my own, I suppose, which creeps around. I don't have to have too much technique for it. I've developed the parts of my technique that are useful to me. I'll never be a very fast guitar player. I don't really know what to say about my style. There's always a melodic intent in there.
David Gilmour
Image
I think I'm still trying to be experimental on everything I ever do, but it's not as obviously way-out and experimental as what we were.
David Gilmour
Image
The expectation on me as a solo artist is very different to the audience's expectation of a Pink Floyd show.
David Gilmour

Jimi Hendrix isn't as good as me!
