I don't write my music for Sony. I write it for the people who are screaming down the road crying to a full-blast stereo.

More quotes by Jeff Buckley
A tune has to resonate with whatever is happening around it.
Jeff Buckley
Kiss me, please kiss me But kiss me out of desire, babe, and not consolation You know it makes me so angry 'cause i know that in time I'll only make you cry, this is our last goodbye.
Jeff Buckley
In love we are all brothers and sisters
Jeff Buckley
Music should be like making love. Sometimes you want it soft and tender, another time you want it hard and aggressive.
Jeff Buckley
I just want to be a guy with a guitar.
Jeff Buckley
I have no advice for anybody except to, you know, be awake enough to see where you are at any given time, and how that is beautiful, and has poetry inside. Even places you hate.
Jeff Buckley
And though the meaning fits, there's no relief in this. I miss my beautiful friend.
Jeff Buckley
I love anything that haunts me...and never leaves
Jeff Buckley
But music seems to me to be the most closely identified with my soul. I mean, I feel that it’s the best for me. It just gets into the bloodstream so quickly, for no reason at all. You can close your heart, and you can sleep even with your eyes closed, but you can never close your ears.
Jeff Buckley
If you do anything regularly for a while, sooner or later the weirdoes will show up.
Jeff Buckley
I sacrificed my anonymity for my father, whereas he sacrificed me for his fame.
Jeff Buckley
There is no good singing, there is only present and absent.
Jeff Buckley
Kiss me out of desire, but not consolation.
Jeff Buckley
I like cinematic art that doesn't have to include violence as the main meat of emotion. Now, excellence in cinema is based on murder, guns. Tarantino bores me. Even though he is very appealing and very facile about putting elements of pop culture into his work. But it kinds of dates it, right?
Jeff Buckley
I like a spirituality with a God that knows how to drive a car, that knows how to take his girl to the dance club, dance all night, have a little drink, kiss the kid when they come back in and go to sleep. God doesn't need a chauffeur-- he needs to drive himself.
Jeff Buckley
Sensitivity isn't about being wimpy. It's about being so painfully aware that a flea landing on a dog is like a sonic boom
Jeff Buckley
Above all do not give yourself airs. Breaking the moment of past habits is the challenge here: In the life of the spirit you are always at the beginning.
Jeff Buckley
The music can tell people everything they need to know about being human beings. It's not my information, it's not mine. I didn't make it. I just discovered it.
Jeff Buckley
My favorite kind of music is the stuff that stops time. You put something on to sit there and let an experience go through you. To look at yourself clearly through a song. It's true of all art, all mediums, but for some reason music has a direct line straight into people.
Jeff Buckley
I want to be ripped apart by music.
