Did you ever hear about the rock and roll singer who got 3 or 4 Cadillacs, saying power to the people, dance to the music, wants you to pat him on the back.
Van Morrison
Image
Music to me is spontaneous, writing is spontaneous and it's all based on not trying to do it. From beginning to end, whether it's writing a song, or playing guitar, or a particular chord sequence, or blowing a horn, it's based on improvisation and spontaneity.
Van Morrison
Image
Into the Music was about the first album where I felt, 'I'm starting here'...the Wavelength thing, I didn't really feel that was me.
Van Morrison

In the gentle evening freeze, by the whispering shady trees I will find sanctuary in the Lord.
Van Morrison

Every performance is different. That's the beauty of it.

Any artist is an instrument-and that's exactly why you can't do it all the time. You can only do it when it's happening, when it's coming through. No matter how much you may want to do it, if it's not happening then it's simply not happening.
Van Morrison

Somebody's going to hear a song that will key in a nerve or something in their experience that represents their own vision. And the next person is going to see it completely different. So even what it means to me is probably irrelevant. It's totally irrelevant. What matters is what it means to each person listening to it.

I educated myself. To me, school was boring.
Van Morrison
Image
I was like one of those newspapers, those periodicals. There's all different kinds of alcoholics. There's the everyday kind: that's the consistent one. That's what people think an alcoholic is-but an alcoholic is basically just someone who's allergic to alcohol. That's all it means. It's just an allergy.
Van Morrison
Image
Have I told you lately that I love you, have I told you lately there's no one above you. Fill my heart with gladness, take away all my sadness, ease my troubles, that's what you do.
Van Morrison
Image
I never bought the commercial thing, at any stage of the game.
Van Morrison
Image
The fog of illusion, the fog of confusion is hanging all over the world.
Van Morrison
Image
I just can't stand jazz/rock. I think it's the worst thing that's come down the river yet.
Van Morrison
Image
Definitely Muddy Waters has been a prime influence for anybody who's ever done anything rock 'n' roll.
Van Morrison
Image
If you want to put your rock 'n' roll into mythology, [A Period of Transition] is from the Daddy Cool school.
Van Morrison
Image
Enlightenment, don't know what it is. It's up to you, the way you think.
Van Morrison
Image
It was really strange for me when I started to play concerts in America where the audiences were all sitting down.

If you live the life you love, you get the blessing from above.

Go up to the mountain, go up to the glen, where silence will touch you, and heartbreak will mend.
