More quotes by Nick Lowe
When punk rock came along, the one thing you were not supposed to be was musical.
Nick Lowe
When I find a cover song that I like, I'll work away at it until I kind of believe that I wrote it.
Nick Lowe
The older I get, there doesn't seem to be anything remotely more interesting than talking about love and the lack of it and what happens when it's taken away from someone who's had it.
Nick Lowe
Be a military flier or be in a band those were the two hippest things I could imagine.
Nick Lowe
I'm really lucky that I've had a little gang of people who I've been involved with for a long time... I've been really lucky to have a gang of people who have always been there to encourage me to get on with it. Styles come and go, but I try not to take any notice of that.
Nick Lowe
I used to sort of take the phone off the hook, you know, put my feet up and watch the TV until it was all over.
Nick Lowe
My latest theory is that it's - well, I describe it as, like, being in an apartment with kind of thin walls. And in the apartment next door, they've got a radio tuned constantly on - tuned to a really cool radio station. It's on all the time. And you can just hear it coming through the wall all the time.
Nick Lowe
The number of contemporary artists who appeal to me is infinitesimal.
Nick Lowe
You want to sing this song. And so it goes on until eventually, after - well, however long it can take - sometimes a few days, sometimes months - you piece the whole thing together.
Nick Lowe
I felt that in order to do what I wanted to do, I had to do certain things, and one of them was to have a hit in my own right. At least one.
Nick Lowe
As soon as one of my records goes on, it makes a vast portion of the public nervous. They get spooked by it. To some people who have ears to hear, it's a delightful, refreshing change. But to most of the public, it's a load of homemade-sounding nonsense.
Nick Lowe
The world is full of musicians who can play great, and you wouldn't cross the road to see them. It's people who have this indefinable attitude that are the good ones.
Nick Lowe
In the '70s, you had to come up with an album every year whether you were ready or not.
Nick Lowe
You've got to really know your song, inside and out.
Nick Lowe
But anyway, I was convinced that it would go away, you know. But the idea was that he was sitting on a flight - you know, one of those sort of fairly long flights, like, sort of, you know, Newark to Denver or something like that - so, you know, a few hours.
Nick Lowe
Later in life, suddenly, if you're an outsider, it's something to be celebrated, I think, rather than getting on people's nerves.
Nick Lowe
I don't have the faith now. I certainly believe in Jesus - you know, that he existed and he was a very nice man. And who can disagree with a simple philosophy of treat other people like you'd like to be treated yourself? It's absolutely - nothing I can disagree with that.
Nick Lowe
I mean, the way I'm talking, it sounds like I'm - you know, I'm about to go out and sign up for the nearest seminary, and you'll never see or hear from me again. But it's a hard thing to talk about really 'cause I'm not at all sure myself about it. But I've got a very, very simple sort of outlook to it. Yeah, that's all I can say, really.
Nick Lowe
I love the sound of breaking glass Especially when Im lonely I need the noises of destruction When theres nothing new.
Nick Lowe
When my pop career was over, I was scratching my head, thinking, God, how am I going to do something after I'm forty? I was in my mid-thirties, thinking I was on the scrap heap.
Nick Lowe
