More quotes by Robyn Hitchcock
I can tell how I'm doing, and I can tell if the crowd is particularly dead.
Robyn Hitchcock
You realize that the first Bryan Ferry album was pretty good although at the time it seemed a bit cheesy.
Robyn Hitchcock
Generally, I have an instinct for the noncommercial. And the unpopular.
Robyn Hitchcock
Just as with a guitar, you can improvise a guitar solo, and they'd probably be similar each time, but they won't be exactly the same. With the word, it's probably a bit freer than that. I probably repeat myself more musically than I do verbally.
Robyn Hitchcock
An un-named song is like an un-named child, it has no identity.
Robyn Hitchcock
I'm not really a good singer. But most people aren't, either.
Robyn Hitchcock
I don't really have the gift of the sustained narrative that you need to write a book. I've tried a couple of times, and it just doesn't work. But I get some good passages, so what I'm going to do is just take sections out of them.
Robyn Hitchcock
Using the word weird implies that there is a norm.
Robyn Hitchcock
If you do things out of time you're weird.
Robyn Hitchcock
I became a musician because that's really what I wanted to do when I was fifteen, but I had other abilities.
Robyn Hitchcock
If I played just one song from every album, I would be onstage for two and a half hours. No one wants a show that long.
Robyn Hitchcock
If you make money back from your record, you're doing it smart. It's an expensive hobby. I'm lucky enough to still make a living as a musician through live work and odd bits of royalties.
Robyn Hitchcock
I thin many people's deviant behavior starts with dreams because dreams are so non-linear... as if there's an assumption that everything has to be linear or has to be plotted.
Robyn Hitchcock
I don't advocate Stalinist monolithic state structures any more than I advocate capitalistic monoliths. Unfortunately, human society tends to the monolithic, whether you go to the left or right, everybody in leathers, or everybody holding Chairman Mao's book, and if everybody goes to one end of the pitch, I always go to the other.
Robyn Hitchcock
Love is the distance between reality and pain.
Robyn Hitchcock
One of the ideas behind doing this acoustic record is that I didn't want to have to produce it by committee.
Robyn Hitchcock
I was always jealous of something getting more attention.
Robyn Hitchcock
People in the future look back on primitive machinery or technology or painting, and in some ways, it always seems amazingly intricate and finely wrought.
Robyn Hitchcock
I could never be a professional comedian, 'cause you have to keep telling the same jokes. For me, they're like word solos.
Robyn Hitchcock
The band is like a vintage car. You take it out to go for a spin for a couple miles, but you wouldn't drive across the country.
