Every album is just a greatest hits of whatever songs are on a pile when I go in to make a record.
Amanda Palmer

My brother has his sword, King Robert has his warhammer and I have my mind...and a mind needs books as a sword needs a whetstone if it is to keep its edge. That's why I read so much Jon Snow.
George R. R. Martin
Image
I was in Jacques Brel Off-Broadway for many years, so I've always been a singing actress, but the songwriting was a complete surprise. I had never written a song in my life. We were on the road with Jacques Brel doing the national tour, and I picked up a guitar one day and I wrote a song.
Amanda McBroom

I'm not a perfect song writer, but I am song writing problems with dynamics, instrument change and arrangements.
Richard Patrick

Time is your friend, impulse is your enemy. Take advantage of compound interest and don't be captivated by the siren song of the market.
Warren Buffett
Image
I didn't want to be a big record mogul and all that stuff. I just wanted to write songs and make people laugh.
Berry Gordy

A Hank Cochran song in the studio is spiritual. It's like singing a hymn in a church.
Jamey Johnson
Image
Music and songs are written at different periods of time, at different times in your life. They reflect the feelings you have and to be honest, I quite like having positive emotions.
Scott Ian
Image
The autumn comes, a maiden fair In slenderness and grace, With nodding rice-stems in her hair And lilies in her face. In flowers of grasses she is clad And as she moves along, Birds greet her with their cooing glad Like bracelets' tinkling song.
Kalidasa

Where most people looked forward to the weekend to go out and yie one on, my idea of a good time was to figure out a Scorpions song
Warren DeMartini

Some sang too that Thror and Thrain would come back one day and gold would flow in rivers, through the mountain-gates, and all that land would be filled with new song and new laughter. But this pleasant legend did not much affect their daily business.
J. R. R. Tolkien
Image
Love is the answer, said the songs, and that's OK. It was OK, I supposed, as an answer. But no more than that. It was not a solution it wasn't really even an answer, just a reply.
Lorrie Moore

The great Gaels of Ireland are the men that God made mad, For all their wars are merry, and all their songs are sad.
Gilbert K. Chesterton
Image
What is our life but a succession of preludes to that unknown song whose first solemn note is sounded by death?
Alphonse de Lamartine
Image
Lost in Static 18 And the storm is closing in now Automatic 18 - Got to push through - Trapped in living hell You're a prisoner of the dark sky The propeller blades are still And the evil eye of the hurricane's Coming in now for the kill
Mike Oldfield

When I started out, I wrote the songs, recorded the songs, mastered, mixed, did the artwork, made the packaging and did the distribution, all myself. Now I understand what everyone's jobs are, who is doing them right, and who isn't.
Aloe Blacc

In hip-hop, I wasn't very focused on delivering a message. It was just a string of lines that didn't connect. What I wanted to do is write stories... and affect someone's emotions with that song. I think as a soul singer, I'm able to accomplish that.

When the student has her voice under complete control, it is safe to take up the lyric repertoire of Mendelssohn, Old English Songs, etc. How simple and charming they are!
Alma Gluck

The sincerity of the art worker must permeate the song as naturally as the green leaves break through the dead branches in springtime.
Alma Gluck

I write almost everything, actually. Songs, poems, stories. And stories out of every genre, too.
Jackie Evancho
Image
To me, the message of my songs, of all songs, is enjoy life. My message as a person who evidently doens't have much more planned is the same. It's the only message I ever thought art had any business having.
Warren Zevon
Image
In most of my films I write the music into the script. I'm listening to songs and lyrics that empower the themes of the film. There's a lot of Indigenous music that has not been heard widely and I love the idea of giving that music to the rest of the world.
Warwick Thornton

I love wasting time and learning to lip-sync to songs it's a silly hobby of mine.
Allison Janney
Image
I've always felt writing a song was a bit like going on location. That's true in an almost literal sense. Where you are seeps in somehow.
Elvis Costello
