More quotes by James Hetfield
Music is the soundtrack to my life.
James Hetfield

James Hetfield

James Hetfield
I wanted to make noise, not study theory.
James Hetfield
Aqualung is one that my brother turned me onto. It wasn't that hard-rocking, but Martin Barre had a really good sound. He knew what he was doing.
James Hetfield
Every breath I take becomes deeper, and I become more confident of myself without my crutches. The lies I've filled my body and soul with aren't needed anymore. They're not welcome. I choose to live, not just exist.
James Hetfield

James Hetfield
There is something powerful in Metallica, a will, a drive.
James Hetfield
Any time somebody is into your band that's a good thing. And if they're in a really cool, really popular band, that's a better thing.
James Hetfield

James Hetfield
I was pretty quiet as a child. I kind of hung out with my family and listened to music and sh*t. I wasn't too outgoing at all.
James Hetfield
When people start copying your style, you know that something must be happening.
James Hetfield
My vocals are bad, I can't sing, hey man, I wouldn't ask you to do a drum roll if your arm was falling off.
James Hetfield
There was so much good and different music back then and you'd just keep moving through it and discovering more new stuff. I went through my Black Sabbath phase before I even started playing guitar.
James Hetfield
A lot of times, I'll have a goal, I'll start writing, and I'll end up in some far off place, which is good. It's nice to have a focus, but letting the lyrics write themselves where they need to go is important.
James Hetfield
We'd record a song that people liked and wanted to hear on the radio, and the radio wouldn't play it because it was too long. Or they wanted to edit it, which we wouldn't allow.
