More quotes by Geddy Lee
I would like to shift more into writing for and producing people.
Geddy Lee
It's a battle between record company, between producer and between mastering engineer. Because the louder you make your record in a digital process, the more dynamics are squished out of it. Nobody knows exactly what happens, but the dynamics in the performance disappear, and everything is at the same volume.
Geddy Lee
I like to be able to come and go as I please, and I don't really like having my face and name plastered around. I think it's a bit weird to have your name plastered on every page in a magazine, where in each case you're using a different piece of equipment.
Geddy Lee
Music is all about wanting to be better at it.
Geddy Lee
So, I really don't consider myself a fabulous keyboard player.
Geddy Lee
I guess, we were people who just dedicated to trying to get better.
Geddy Lee
It's hard for me to just practice without writing something.
Geddy Lee
So, I don't know what is going to happen when the CD comes out, how well it will sell, etc. But, from a personal point of view, it was a very worthwhile endeavor.
Geddy Lee
Some writing and production projects will be a great way to spend my elderly rock years.
Geddy Lee
Back in the day, fans wrote letters to groups - you'd get them, although it could take a while. Now, artists can go online and there's discussions about what you should and shouldn't be doing. The minute you announce that you're recording an album, thousands of people are telling you what that album should be.
Geddy Lee
I can't remember the first song I learned to play on bass, but the first song I learned to play on guitar was 'For Your Love' by the Yardbirds. That kind of was the beginning for me. I thought it was a great song and I loved the open chord progression at the beginning of that song.
Geddy Lee
That is what intrigues me songwriting and song structure and expression.
Geddy Lee
I like to practice on the bass, but I don't do it as often as I should.
Geddy Lee
My emotions are very simple and always have been about the Hall of Fame. It's something that I had absolutely nothing to do with and had no control over, so I never thought much about it, to be frank.
Geddy Lee
If you have some magical chemistry that actually find the music you make compelling, that is a big bonus.
Geddy Lee
I have such an extreme attitude about work, where I can just completely be derelict of my responsibilities and then when I am not derelict, I am completely indulged in it. I swing pretty wildly from the two extremes.
Geddy Lee
Then, once I have lyrics, being able to shape them around a song is nothing new for me, I've been doing that for 25 years. The soul searching part of it, the spontaneous part of it, that was, and remains, a really terrific process.
Geddy Lee
With me, satisfaction is always very fleeting with our work. I always get a little restless with it.
Geddy Lee
And the meek shall inherit the earth.
Geddy Lee
For me, there is a lot of room for improvement and there are a lot of things I would like to be better at.
