More quotes by Robyn Hitchcock
An un-named song is like an un-named child, it has no identity.
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
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
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
I became a musician because that's really what I wanted to do when I was fifteen, but I had other abilities.
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
Generally, I have an instinct for the noncommercial. And the unpopular.
Robyn Hitchcock
There's nothing in the future and there's nothing in the past. There is only this one moment, and you've got to make it last.
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
If you do things out of time you're weird.
Robyn Hitchcock
After Nashville sushi and a long debate on Bob Dylan, we went into Woodland Studios at 10 pm that night for a look around, and jammed for 5 hours solid.
Robyn Hitchcock
As soon as someone like me or David Lynch pops up everyone says hallelujah, how weird.
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
Using the word weird implies that there is a norm.
Robyn Hitchcock
Playing acoustic and line drawings are the two things I'm most competent at.
Robyn Hitchcock
Most songs are somewhere between love and death, and mine are no exception.
Robyn Hitchcock
People's intelligence tends to be in inverse proportion to their number. People don't tend to get smarter as they get into bigger groups.
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
After the Soft Boys I just didn't want to work with any more guitarists.
Robyn Hitchcock
