More quotes by Sean Lennon
You can't just pay attention to the short term, you just have to keep publishing.
Sean Lennon
It's a bit embarrassing watching myself, but I couldn't get someone else to play me, that would've been stupid.
Sean Lennon
For me, songwriting is something that I have to do ritually. I don't just wait for inspiration I try to write a little bit every day.
Sean Lennon
I'm not trying to overcome my father or fill his shoes or reach any kind of level that he did. We're talking about a [Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart] of rock music.
Sean Lennon

If you give people more perspective of one object, they start to see it more clearly.
Sean Lennon
My tendency is to be very experimental.
Sean Lennon
I wouldn't even say Imagine is political. I think it's…more just sort of declaration of humanity. I don't find his political songs to be the ones that I go home and listen to. And I would say that of any artist. They're not the ones that interest…
Sean Lennon
I actually think in music, learning technical stuff doesn't matter. You can be as technical as you like, but still sound awful.
Sean Lennon
Anyone who doesn't think the government killed my father either hasn't given the issue much thought, or is insane.
Sean Lennon
I've always been cool, basically. I was cool in utero.
Sean Lennon
I like music because it's the only invisible art form.
Sean Lennon
I like songs that go to different places and then come back.
Sean Lennon
Now Daddy is part of God. I guess when you die you become much more bigger, because you're part of everything.
Sean Lennon
I don't like when people dress intentionally ugly. Personally that's not my thing.
Sean Lennon
We live in a pretty bleak time. I feel that in the air. Everything is uncertain. Everything feels like its on the precipice of some major transformation, whether we like it or not.
Sean Lennon
