Listened Quotes

I just picked up a lot of classic-rock, melodic influence from my mom, music that she listened to, like 10,000 Maniacs, Led Zeppelin, REO Speedwagon and Yes Picture Quote #1

Have you ever closed your eyes and listened to the sound of your own mother’s voice? Picture Quote #1

I particularly enjoy cello music because our daughter plays the cello. I have listened to her practice for so many hours that I am familiar with the music written for that instrument. I am also fond of the popular music of the 1930s because my future husband and I danced to it so many Saturday nights when we were in college Picture Quote #1

When our ancestors crouched about the camp fire at night, they told each other tales of gods and heroes, monsters and marvels, to hold back the terrors of the night. Such tales comforted and entertained, diverted and educated those who listened, and helped shape their sense of the world and their place in it Picture Quote #1

A company is people Â¦ employees want to knowÂ¦ am I being listened to or am I a cog in the wheel? People really need to feel wanted Picture Quote #1

Pink Floyd are one of a handful of bands I’ve listened to a lot and whose concerts I’ve been to. I love the experience. I don’t dance; I just jig up and down like everybody else Picture Quote #1

Making words rhyme for a living is one of the great joys of my life... That’s a superpower I’ve been very conscious of developing. I started at the same level as everybody else, and then I just listened to more music and talked to myself until it was an actual superpower I could pull out on special occasions Picture Quote #1

Every time I tried writing my own songs, they would come out very country. I couldn’t fight it, and the more I listened to country music, the more I loved it, and it just became very natural Picture Quote #1

My mother always taught us that if people don’t agree with you, the important thing is to listen to them. But if you’ve listened to them carefully and you still think that you’re right, then you must have the courage of your convictions Picture Quote #1

I was 18, at art school, and saw this cute boy playing banjo. I was obsessed. I taught myself how to play. I listened to a lot of country and just messed around. The second song I wrote on the banjo was ‘Good to Be a Man.’ That what’s got me signed Picture Quote #1

He spoke wistfully of a sudden leaving, a breaking of old ties, a flight into a strange world, ending in this dreary valley, and Ettie listened, her dark eyes gleaming with pity and with sympathy - those two qualities which may turn so rapidly and so naturally to love Picture Quote #1

I didn’t know much about him, and I wasn’t a big country music fan. I listened to the Beatles and David Bowie, so I didn’t know a lot about him Picture Quote #1

It’s fun to look at people that are so good at acting that aren’t actors, like David Bowie creating a mystique about rock n’ roll. I’ve listened to ‘Ziggy Stardust’ as much as any rock n’ roll fan - I don’t really know what it’s about, but it sure is fun to think about David Bowie as this mad creation Picture Quote #1

I saw Stephen Sondheim’s Sweeney Todd, which I thought was a masterpiece. Not that long ago, I listened to Blackstar by David Bowie and thought that was a masterpiece. Those are two incredibly talented people who’ve left their mark with us Picture Quote #1

The ‘Maybe Memories’ album I remember having and listening until it broke. I remember it skipped one day; two or three songs wouldn’t play on my CD player because I listened to it so much Picture Quote #1

I’d like to imagine I won’t end up in Hell, but I think I’ve done too much acid and listened to too much death metal to sit on a cloud next to God with angels floating above my head Picture Quote #1

I took a deep breath and listened to the old brag of my heart. I am, I am, I am Picture Quote #1

When I was a young student, I only listened to foreign music, mainly rock music and hard rock. Then I surprised myself by discovering ethnic music. Now I like to listen to music from different places, and in many situations. Even when you work, some ethnic music calms the nerves Picture Quote #1

My mom listened to the Beatles and Elvis, a lot of different types of music Picture Quote #1

As I’ve gotten old I’ve really listened to a wide spectrum of music, whether it’s The Carpenters, Stevie Wonder, Justin Timberlake, Jay-Z or Lauryn Hill. I’ve kinda’ run the gamut, and in listening to so many different styles, you come to take bits and pieces from all of it Picture Quote #1

Back in the old days, when I was a child, we sat around the family table at dinner time and exchanged our daily experiences. It wasn’t very organized, but everyone was recognized and all the news that had to be told was told by each family member. We listened to each other and the interest was not put on; it was real Picture Quote #1

If you listen to everybody’s opinions, I mean, I always say I’d be digging a ditch on the side of the road now if I had listened to what everybody told me what to do. You know, you have to follow your heart, you have to Picture Quote #1

I always loved singing, but I thought it was like drawing - just something you do in your own little corner to calm yourself down. But when my friend, the French songwriter Etienne Daho, listened to my songs, he was so moved that told me that I had to do a demo, share them with the world Picture Quote #1

Back in the days, the groups and the bands that we listened to were like Earth, Wind and Fire, Santana and Grateful Dead. We don’t have a lot of those bands anymore Picture Quote #1

When I was a boy, my older brothers listened to Earth, Wind and Fire and Kool and the Gang. When I would try to get into their room, they would close the door and say, ‘You can’t hear that. It’s not for a child!’ Now, I can listen to it and enjoy it Picture Quote #1

I took advice from none but the best. I listened, how I listened! That’s how I finally became my own expert Picture Quote #1

My mum always told me, ‘Have something to fall back on’ and I never really listened Picture Quote #1

I listened to a lot of The Stooges when I was writing Oscillate, imagining our hero moving through his days naturally embodying the spirit of a real punk. I say real, because today’s idea of ‘punk as fashion accessory’ doesn’t even register with him, it’s more about the way he engages with the world Picture Quote #1

I’ve always listened to music while I write, but none of my work has been so directly impacted by a song as my new novel, ‘So Cold the River,’ for which the brilliant strings piece ‘Short Trip Home,’ composed by Edgar Meyer and featuring the incredible Joshua Bell on violin, inspired much of the story 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
