If you made a record, I'd probably pick out tracks that I like and download that. That's just how it is.

More quotes by Ringo Starr
I mean, I was born the day war broke out, but I don't remember all the bombs though they did actually break up Liverpool, you know. I remember when I was a little older, there was big gaps in all the streets where houses used to be. We used to play over them.
Ringo Starr
Every night there's a moment that I just wanna go back to bed. I just get nervous. Then I run on (stage) and as soon as I grab the mic then I'm fine.
Ringo Starr
I am truly grateful. I'm a grateful human being.
Ringo Starr
No, no, no, I don't snort no more, I'm tired of waking up on the floor. No thank you please, it only makes me sneeze, then it makes it hard to find the door.
Ringo Starr
When you're in a band - before it got to grunge - you dressed the bit. So yeah, I've always had an attitude with the clothes.
Ringo Starr
Roy Orbison was the only act that The Beatles didn't want to follow.
Ringo Starr
I don't collect any memorabilia. I wish I'd have kept everything I had. But who knew you had to keep it. Just gave it away. And we lost so much and we didn't look after a lot of it.
Ringo Starr
I'm nervous ahead of every gig. I feel like running away three seconds before I'm due on stage. But I'm all right as soon as I get the mic in my hand.
Ringo Starr
Every time, my syncopation is different, because I can never play the same fill twice. I just can't, never have been able to. Even as a Beatle, they'd say, 'Oh, double-track that.' I don't know how you do that, because when I'm in a fill I'm sort of this blackout, just this pure me coming out and I can't pure me the same, twice. So, that's that.
Ringo Starr
Wake up meat head, don't pretend that you are dead.
Ringo Starr
Peace and love, peace and love!
Ringo Starr
The trouble with leaving your feet on the ground is you never get to take your pants off.
Ringo Starr
I'm on my feet and I'm doing what I love to do, and I'm in a profession, as a musician, where we can go on for as long as we can go on.
Ringo Starr
Beatles, women and children first!
Ringo Starr
I've said this over and over again, but I love being in a band.
Ringo Starr
When I'm ninety-five and it's 'This is Your Life' time, they'll still be referring to me as 'ex-Beatle'...it does have it's advantages. It's still the best way to get a good table at a resturant.
Ringo Starr
Of course I'm ambitious. What's wrong with that? Otherwise you sleep all day.
Ringo Starr
Gaps can be very emotional. I mean, that's in my drumming. When I drum, you know, I don't need to drum all over the track. I play with the singer and I can back off.
Ringo Starr
I've never really done anything to create what has happened. It creates itself. I'm here because it happened. But I didn't do anything to make it happen apart from saying 'Yes'
Ringo Starr
I like playing with a live band and I've got my act and we're fine.
