I never aspired to be up front. When I was a kid, I didn't ever look in the mirror with a hairbrush going, Hey, I'm Elvis!

More quotes by Vince Gill
Music is like having a conversation. All musicians inspire each other, and they're all geared to play something that matters.
Vince Gill
A lot of people play to impress, but the really gifted ones play to move. That's the greatest point of ever doing this.
Vince Gill
You can't define the ache that's in George's voice. It's just something inherently him. It doesn't need definition. It doesn't need clarification. It doesn't need a lot of things. You just sit back and appreciate it. It's just greatness.
Vince Gill
Everything I've done feels like I'm just as much a part of it as if I was the producer. It's still the same job: all of us together figuring out the common good for a song. That's the only thing that matters. It's not like, I'm the boss, and I'm gonna tell you what to play.
Vince Gill
I've always been the high harmony singer. It's never my job to know the verses! But I know the chorus of every song ever made.
Vince Gill
I've never been in the studio where it felt like I didn't have a voice. Whether I was co-producing or producing by myself, this community is the one place where I really see democracy at its purest.
Vince Gill
You learn a whole lot more about a person if they have bad breaks and all those kind of things.
Vince Gill
I don't want to impress somebody, I want to move somebody. Say the most with the least.
Vince Gill
I formally proposed. I'm a good Southern gentleman.
Vince Gill
I had just lost my dad and I remembered all the songs we used to go and hear at concerts, and the records around the house and sometimes we'd play together.
Vince Gill
I've always been more drawn to being normal than being famous.
Vince Gill
I do not like being famous. I like being normal.
Vince Gill
I don't chase what everyone else is looking for. Being creative is all about you.
Vince Gill
When you lose people that are close to you it brings everything into focus, and the rest kind of gets put on the back burner.
Vince Gill
I am not struggling. What I do, it is what I do.
Vince Gill
The real beauty of it - key to my life was playing key chords on a banjo. For somebody else it may be a golf club that mom and dad put in their hands or a baseball or ballet lessons. Real gift to give to me and put it in writing.
Vince Gill
When I look back, I don't remember the best of the best. I don't remember arena shows with 20,000 people. I remember funky little bar gigs where nobody shows up. The weirdest of the weird are what you retain.
Vince Gill
Even when I'm touring, I feel like a sideman ... everybody's working together. We get to play longer solos it's not just Here's the record! Thank you for coming Goodnight ... it has always had a band feel instead of being a singer and his backup band.
Vince Gill
The real amazing thing about all of this is I think I've maintained the mentality of a musician throughout it all, which I'm proudest of. And I'm still playing on people's records and singing on people's records.
Vince Gill
The funny thing is, people's perceptions of what a song is about is usually wrong a majority of the time. But they're still going to read what they want to into it.
