I feel there must be an enormous amount of really talented songwriters out there who can't sing.

I know without our fans and the devotion of our fans we wouldn't be here. I don't mean to put them down, but I'm just stating a fact that it is hard to play to people that see you all the time and it takes a lot of fun out of it in some ways.

I don't have any illusions anymore. The illusion that rock 'n' roll could change anything - I don't believe that. I've changed.
Roger Daltrey
I enjoy singing being in touch with something that is inside of me.
Roger Daltrey
I think if Keith Moon was here today and you asked him to recall most of his early life or most of his life, he wouldn't be able to recall it.
Roger Daltrey
I hope I die before I get old.
Roger Daltrey
We were too rough at the edges to be a pop group.
Roger Daltrey
Imagine if you could go watch Mozart today, even if it's the last, crappiest show he ever played. What a thrill that would be.
Roger Daltrey
I love Adele. That's a lead singer that's the real deal.
Roger Daltrey
I can't hit some of the real high notes I used to hit, but it makes you have to explore different avenues.
Roger Daltrey
I don't know many singers who actually do like the sound of their own voice.
Roger Daltrey
All you could do was to see them. We were backstage when the Beatles were on and you could just about hear a noise. It was just literally screaming.
