I think some of the musicians are more like punk rock musicians. It's like an art as opposed to being a musician. It's definitely more radical psychedelic bands, more than anything.

More quotes by Wayne Coyne
I want people to be ecstatic but to cry at the same time.
Wayne Coyne
You want to be influenced by the world because it has so many cool things about it, but it also has a bunch of bad things about it.
Wayne Coyne
I knew she was from Australia and I knew that is where she started but I didn't know if she was still popular there. I hope people understand we aren't making fun of Kylie.
Wayne Coyne
I think when people think of music from coming from Oklahoma, they think of Toby Keith or even Garth Brooks or even Woody Guthrie. People think, Why do we have to just be about the Bible and about football? Why can't we be about something like the Flaming Lips? And I salute them! I say, Well, that's great if you want that.
Wayne Coyne
I think making movie is kind of like getting fat people to walk 20 miles. If you just do it 100 yards at a time, and nobody knows how far they are going, they can do it!I would include myself in those fat people! You do this little by little and you don't realize your potential, or you don't realize how really rich, and how far you can go.
Wayne Coyne
As you get older, you accept that there are some tunnels that don't have any light in them, but you go down them anyway.
Wayne Coyne
Sometimes the song title comes with the songs, other times you just sorta make something up afterwards.
Wayne Coyne
When I do yoga, it gets all sweaty, and the best thing for dried up hair isn't shampoo, it's sweat.
Wayne Coyne
Try to be happy within the context of the life we are actually living. Happiness is not a situation to be longed for or a convergence of lucky happenstance. Through the power of our own minds, we can help ourselves.
Wayne Coyne
Life is worth celebrating and worth living even though we're all headed to the same hole at the end of the day.
Wayne Coyne
You can't really imagine every moment of a movie in the same way that you wouldn't expect a novelist to envision every sentence of his 800-page novel.
Wayne Coyne
I am not that thrilled about the way our records sound anyway. Don't get me wrong, I work hard on them and I want them to sound fantastic but I'm happy to have another interpretation of them anyway.
Wayne Coyne
A lot of times I'll doodle on something while I'm doing interviews, because sometimes I'm on the phone for three or four hours and I want to get something going. I'll just start from a scribble, or something that someone else already put on the page.
Wayne Coyne
I think the more music becomes something you could simply download and have on your iPod, I think to a lot of people that is plenty, but to some people, they still want these artifacts that are touchable, and you can smell them, and look at them, and hold them and just have other dimensions of experience with this music.
Wayne Coyne
Love is not a magic gravity that keeps everything up.
Wayne Coyne
Occasionally there are people who are not like me, and I forget that they're more introverted or shy, or just don't want to make a decision so quickly.
Wayne Coyne
Everything that you do in your life that helps you sweat is good for you.
Wayne Coyne
I want to know what you're thinking, you want to know what I'm thinking. But we're alone. In our own minds. We're trapped in this sort of isolation.
Wayne Coyne
I remember when my father was dying, I remember listening to Bjork, and listening to John Coltrane, and these things, and I don't know why but music has the power to transcend your physical being and take you up just a little bit.
Wayne Coyne
It is comforting to know that there is at least one place where we can go and be confident that we will find an audience thirsting to find new music. Paste Magazine is that place. It's loss would create a very large black hole.
