Album Quotes

I do a lot of curiosity buying; I buy it if I like the album cover, I buy it if I like the name of the band, anything that sparks my imagination. I still like to go to record stores, I like to just wander around and I’ll buy whatever catches my attention Picture Quote #1

I don’t think I’d ever make an album of just covers because I love writing my own music Picture Quote #1

I might do a solo album, maybe do covers, or do an acoustic thing. No Sex Pistols tours, nothing! Picture Quote #1

I’ve always been a fan of album covers with no writing on them and have used them a lot in my own groups Picture Quote #1

Some of my favourite record and album covers and stuff have all been the singer, and they create a character, and they dress up a little bit Picture Quote #1

My days are kind of controlled by my projects, so sometimes they’re album covers. Sometimes they’re commission portrait shoots. Sometimes they are editorial, so it kind of - I don’t dictate it Picture Quote #1

Even though everybody’s lives are different, in general we’re all human beings, and we go through the same things: disappointments, the pleasures of life, life and death. That’s always been a really big part of the show to me, making sure the audience feels connected, and that carries through to the album Picture Quote #1

I wanted to create an album that spoke all the musical languages I loved Picture Quote #1

It’s a blue album, but it’s not a blues album. I’m not pretending all of a sudden now I’m blues Picture Quote #1

I wanted the album to be aerodynamic, like an airplane taking off from a runway - all of a sudden you’re in the air Picture Quote #1

When you start a new project, no matter if it’s a movie like Enigma or an album like Goddess, you are always learning something. While I search, I find something new Picture Quote #1

My first album was The Doobie Brothers... ‘Captain and Me.’ You always remember your first! Picture Quote #1

I also mixed David Bowie’s Young Americans album in 5.1 earlier this year and it will be available very soon. Even the original stereo mixes have been re-mastered and sound amazingly good, better than ever, in fact! Picture Quote #1

I had no idea ‘The Dream Weaver’ would be so successful. Everything just fell into place with that album. I pioneered a number of ideas with that album and subsequent tour. The all-keyboard approach with no guitars was a new one, and I was one of the first to use a drum machine in concert. It was an amazing time Picture Quote #1

I feel like my best work is in front of me. I’m in the studio now, and I’m having an amazing time making this new album. It’s something I can’t help Picture Quote #1

I’m a singer and working on my second album. I write and produce. There is so much more that satisfies me. So there’s not just this one ambition to become an American movie star. Because I will never become an American movie star Picture Quote #1

My first introduction to African music was by my mother, who bought the ‘Pata Pata’ album by the great Miriam Makeba when it came out. Now that is an album. What a voice Picture Quote #1

Portishead’s production is just insane beats you would expect to be on a KRS-One album. But then there’s this little white girl with an angel voice singing over it. It was a cool juxtaposition. I like ‘It’s A Fire.’ That’s a chill song with kind of a military drum thing going on, like a drummer boy Picture Quote #1

I use the music to vent, and a lot of the stuff that I am writing about or was writing about contained a lot of anger and anxiety, stress and depression, so that’s how the album came out so dark Picture Quote #1

I would never be angry at someone for downloading the album. Sometimes people just wanna listen to it first to see if they like it and that’s totally fair Picture Quote #1

I feel blessed to even be able to put out an English album. Not too many Latin artists get the opportunity to come out and record another genre that’s so different to Bachata Picture Quote #1

I appreciate the additional additives and preservatives that help sell a project, but I’m sticking to what works best for me. I gotta sell the album live on stage and make people believe in the songs Picture Quote #1

I really appreciate the moments that I was able to win rap album of the year or whatever Picture Quote #1

I first saw ‘West Side Story’ on stage in 1958. I was in the army, having been conscripted while under contract to MGM. I caught the musical in New York, fell in love with it, bought the album, and memorised the whole thing Picture Quote #1

An album is a whole universe, and the recording studio is a three-dimensional kind of art space that I can fill with sound. Just as the album art and videos are ways of adding more dimensions to the words and music. I like to be involved in all of it because it’s all of a piece Picture Quote #1

Making an album should be an honest experience. It shouldn’t be about trying to gauge where popular music is today; it should be about artistic expression and putting down what you want to put down Picture Quote #1

Acting and recording an album at the same time, that’s not my sport. I could write a movie when my attention was paid to that. But I’m good at one thing at a time Picture Quote #1

I like to think that I’ve gotten better at what I do. I spend more time and pay more attention to detail album after album. But pretty much it’s stayed the same Picture Quote #1

I’m not too embarrassed to say I’m the definition of the target audience. This is my generation, the one of exalting music in album form Picture Quote #1

England is the first country that I’ve had a no. 1 album in, so it is now officially my home away from home Picture Quote #1
