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

I just need somewhere to dump all my negativity.

I don't like to wonder about it-I just like to do it. That's what I mean about the image stuff and all that. There's far too much emphasis being placed on that kind of stuff... the whole emphasis on what does it mean? Everybody has their own particular vision.

As a developing musician, skiffle became a platform for me to start playing music.

A lot of things come together to make up a song. It's just images.
Van Morrison

I learnt from Armstrong on the early recordings that you never sang a song the same way twice.
Van Morrison
Image
Performing was the natural thing originally and the rest of it [records and so on] is just like offshoots of that. That's how I see it anyway.

This Hollywood ain't no good, I would rather be like Robin Hood.
Van Morrison

These are the days of the endless summer, these are the days, the time is now. There is no past, there's only future, there's only here, there's only now.
Van Morrison
Image
If you're putting somebody down, you're doing it because you're just seeing a part of yourself that you don't like. That's all that is.
Van Morrison

I am about the arrangements and the layers of depth in the music.

I've always listened to jazz or folk or blues. I was always listening to the prophets. I don't really go for...I don't know how to say anything about the singles scene without slamming people.
