Melody Quotes

Melody is the single most important thing to any song, period. I don’t care what anybody says, it trumps everything. Not because that’s my opinion but because I think it’s actually indisputable fact. The human brain retains melody easier than it retains words. It’s that simple Picture Quote #1

In my songs, I’m not saying something that’s never been said before. The have lyrics aren’t going to blow people away. It’s the emotion and the melody that drive it home Picture Quote #1

The music comes first, like, 99 percent of the time. I come up with the basic chord structure and the melody first and then I get really obsessed with arranging, adding, and subtracting parts. The last step of the process, for me, is finding words that fit into that structure and figuring out exactly what I want to talk about Picture Quote #1

When the uniqueness of a place sings to us like a melody, then we will know, at last, what it means to be home Picture Quote #1

I have an urban background, but I need melody, I need a song, so I try to mix and match and keep it fluid Picture Quote #1

Folk music is the original melody of man; it is the musical mirror of the world Picture Quote #1

When you’re making a film you start living with it, and I find myself sitting down and figuring out a sound or melody that would go with a film, or a particular period. It’s not brain surgery, you just kind of feel it along Picture Quote #1

When I wrote a song, it would have to be from something I was really excited about, or a melody that’s been haunting me for weeks, or a message I wanted to convey lyrically. So it would have to start from something I felt very strongly about Picture Quote #1

Sometimes, the best songs are the ones you write without any pen and paper or audio recording device or guitar in your hands. Because there’s nothing between you and the melody; it’s just a great lyric Picture Quote #1

The human brain is a funny thing: it’s very susceptible to tempo and melody. You put the right words to it, and it becomes very influential Picture Quote #1

There’s nothing prettier in the world than a melody. I can get lost in a song with a melody Picture Quote #1

Through song you learn, and I think school systems need to learn that. Through the rhythm you can learn better, through melody, with something you need to learn; it’s a vehicle for it Picture Quote #1

I try to focus on the melodies and try to make everything else minimal. The melody and the lyrics are most important to me Picture Quote #1

It’s funny how the littlest things can make you feel larger than life; the right lyric, the most heartfelt melody, the clearest message. Love Picture Quote #1

Until I can visualise what the lyrics are about and see the story or whatever, I can’t hear the melody Picture Quote #1

I’m always searching for a signature sound and melody that resonates with the film and audience and becomes integral to the film, game, or show Picture Quote #1

I know a girl who cries when she practices violin because each note sounds so pure it just cuts into her, and then the melody comes pouring out her eyes. Now, to me, everything else just sounds like a lie Picture Quote #1

The world is never quiet, even its silence eternally resounds with the same notes, in vibrations which escape our ears. As for those that we perceive, they carry sounds to us, occasionally a chord, never a melody Picture Quote #1

A poet is a nightingale, who sits in darkness and sings to cheer its own solitude with sweet sounds; his auditors are as men entranced by the melody of an unseen musician, who feel that they are moved and softened, yet know not whence or why Picture Quote #1

My voice is my improvisational instrument, the melody instrument. The guitar is harmonic structure. I’m not a good enough guitarist to improvise on it Picture Quote #1

Not every song I write is ecstasy. And it can happen only one time. After that, when you sing the same melody and words, it’s pleasure, but you don’t get wiped out Picture Quote #1

I don’t really have time to sit down and write. But when I think of a melody, I call up my answering machine and sing it, so I won’t forget it Picture Quote #1

I’ve actually had a melody on my guitar since the day I learned how to play it, back when I was 7. And for some reason I can’t add lyrics to it Picture Quote #1

There were people who incorporated melody before me, but I would deem myself the first person to successfully rap and sing Picture Quote #1

The point about melody and beat and lyric is that they exist to engage you in a very particular way. They want to occupy your attention Picture Quote #1

The end of a melody is not its goal: but nonetheless, had the melody not reached its end it would not have reached its goal either. A parable Picture Quote #1

If conversation was the lyrics, laughter was the music, making time spent together a melody that could be replayed over and over without getting stale Picture Quote #1

If his voice hasn’t been the melody of my life, it’s been the bass line, so subtle you don’t notice it until it’s missing Picture Quote #1
