Avicii Quotes

Dance music is like a virus: it has affected so many different genres Picture Quote #1

I tried carrying the weight of the world. But I only have two hands Picture Quote #1

There’s always so much music around me now, it seems like everything has to be something with music, so in my spare time I try not to listen to anything. It’s so hard for me to listen to something without trying to see a benefit in it: ‘Maybe I’ll make my own version of that track or maybe I’ll do this or that.’ Picture Quote #1

I’m a DJ. I get the party started Picture Quote #1

I’ve tried plenty of telephones. I tried to get into the Samsung Galaxy and the Blackberry, but the iPhone is just too easy to use. The camera takes clear pictures and the phone itself looks great. Like all Apple products, it kind of just makes sense Picture Quote #1

I have my guy Semi who is my on the road - he’s my personal trainer. He helps me out with training and stuff like that, and he’s shown me a lot of things I can do on the road. We were trying to figure out something that I can do everywhere, like in my hotel room, so I don’t have to have a gym Picture Quote #1

I love finding out-of-the-box inspirations and blending them with what I’ve done in the past. And when I started to experiment with genres, it didn’t sound forced. Maybe that’s because it’s all music that I listened to growing up, and it’s all music that I love Picture Quote #1

When I started working on electronic music, that was after the rave period. I haven’t even seen that part of it that much Picture Quote #1

I don’t really look at the charts at all. If anything, I try to out-do what I’ve done before. I try to make music that I like and I trust my own judgement with what will work with a wider audience. If you compare yourself to the charts, you lose perspective on what you’re doing and why you’re doing it Picture Quote #1

Originality is definitely missing from EDM. There are people looking for it and exploring but I feel it’s so big now it is just getting milked. House music is losing all its melody as it becomes more about how dirty the drop is and how energetic it is. It loses touch with what music really is Picture Quote #1

There’s always haters, no matter what you’re doing - whether they’re complaining that everything you do sounds the same, or it’s too different Picture Quote #1

I guess I think like deep inside, I know that it’s like, it’s a different kind of performing, it’s not really... You’re not performing like a guitar player or a singer is performing, you know what I mean? So it’s weird to be in the same type setup as one of those. ‘Cause I’m not really doing much, you know, like technically it’s not that hard Picture Quote #1

A friend of mine told me a bunch of stuff on Buddhism and about Avicii being the lowest level of Buddhist hell, and it just sort of got stuck in my head. Later on when I went to setup a MySpace, I tried a bunch of names and they were all taken so I just kind of ended up with Avicii and then I got really attached to it Picture Quote #1

Lyrics are important, but it’s hard, because English isn’t my first language - although it feels like it is these days! I grew up with amazing melodies, so getting that right on a song has always been the key thing for me, but there’s no reason why a great melody doesn’t deserve great lyrics Picture Quote #1

Life’s a game made for everyone and love is the prize. So wake me up when it’s all over - when I’m wiser and I’m older. All this time I was finding myself and I didn’t know I was lost Picture Quote #1

I’m good at melody - I’ll write the top-line melody and ideal words I want to go with it. But I’m not that good at writing lyrics. I bounce those back and forth with songwriters or someone who can sing Picture Quote #1

I love DJing, I do. I love everything that comes with it; it’s fun and it’s kind of glamorous Picture Quote #1

I have always been mainstream. It’s so weird, because I don’t see it as something negative at all. So many people see it as something negative Picture Quote #1

I have a hard time writing music when I’m on tour Picture Quote #1

Dance music is like a virus, it has affected so many different genres Picture Quote #1

I’ve always had a fascination with making your own music but never have been skilled enough to play the instrument, so to be able to make music without the ability was awesome Picture Quote #1

If I wanted to make a quick buck, there’s far easier ways of doing it. What I want is to provoke people. If you want a hit song, all you need to do is rewrite an old song. It might have been proven to work, but you won’t be remembered the same way Picture Quote #1

I think I am a pretty good judge of character in general and try to surround myself with the best people I can Picture Quote #1

I travel with a bunch of battery packs because I don’t always have time to charge my phone at the hotel room when I’m traveling. I always change them, so I never run out of battery Picture Quote #1

When I started working on electronic music, that was after the rave period. I haven’t even seen that part of it that much Picture Quote #1

I actually only started listening to house music around the time I started making it. I got hooked both to making music and to house music Picture Quote #1
