Musical Quotes

We’ve had musical stuff in the show [ South Park] forever. That’s mostly because Trey’s a big musical fan, and he’s a great songwriter. He’s been writing songs his whole life. So since the beginning, we’ve always put a lot of musical moments Picture Quote #1

If you’d have asked me when I was auditioning for High School Musical if I ever thought I was going to play a Marine Picture Quote #1

I can tell that fame is probably the most unadorable thing about acting. High School Musical is what got me here today and I’m very grateful - but the fame part isn’t so fun Picture Quote #1

I actually did do a musical many years ago with John Waters called Cry-Baby, but technically it was only half me - it wasn’t me singing. Tim’s [ Burton] the only person brave enough to actually let me try to sing Picture Quote #1

When I was 4 years old my mother put me into an early music education school. That’s where they taught you perfect pitch and harmony and how to write music and all that. At that time, one of the homeworks was to listen to all the sounds and the noise of a day and transfer that into musical notes Picture Quote #1

And what, then, is belief? It is the demi-cadence which closes a musical phrase in the symphony of our intellectual life Picture Quote #1

Music is one of the closest link-ups with God that we can probably experience. I think it’s a common vibrating tone of the musical notes that holds all life together Picture Quote #1

Michael Jackson was my musical God. He made me believe that all things are possible, and through real and positive music. He can live forever! I love Michael Jackson. God Bless him Picture Quote #1

I actually don’t see that strong of a connection between my background as a rock ‘n roller and my early films. In a way I think your musical identity in film work is determined by the jobs that come your way Picture Quote #1

The idea of a musical comedy was something we had had in mind for many years, but the project ‘Igudesman and Joo: A Little Nightmare Music’ has a history that goes back five years. I can say that this is the most successful project that we have ever done Picture Quote #1

Musical expression is never primarily national, but is personal and individual rather. It is so deep, so profound, that it goes beyond and below nationality and gives voice to the most private feeling. In music there is never exact heredity. Each man is an individual Picture Quote #1

A musical, like most religions, provides the audience or followers with a sense of belonging. Religious services, on the other hand, with their staged performances, invigorating songs, popular wisdom and shared experience, are almost a form of community theater Picture Quote #1

I love plays that have musical moments. I’m not a big fan of musicals per se, but I love straight plays that have musical edges to them. I don’t know if I will ever be able to structure a musical, but ‘Finer Noble Gases’ is as close as I’ve gotten Picture Quote #1

I was lucky enough to see the original cast of ‘In the Heights.’ This one blew my mind. The infusion of Latin, hip hop and rap with musical theatre, great storytelling and talent was a powerful combination to me during a time when I’d not been moved by much! Picture Quote #1

I was raised on gospel. I remember hip-hop and rock music were secular, so basically, for my first ten years living in Detroit, I was on gospel. But when I moved to Houston, that’s when I got to open up my musical horizons Picture Quote #1

My mum was very good at making me take up musical instruments, so although there was no popular music she made me learn the recorder when I was three, the violin when I was five and the piano when I was seven. I took up the guitar myself when I was 14 Picture Quote #1

From their 61 Cavern Club debut to their last rooftop concert eight years later, The Beatles gave every serious artist in their wake the songbook and sound for their career. It’s the musical trough from which nearly every musician drinks Picture Quote #1

The pieces that have survived, the ones that we all love, were not all popular in their time. Just look at Beethoven’s late string quartets. The music that the musical community selects, however, is usually the very best Picture Quote #1

There are so many parts of music that it’s actually a pleasure for me to work with an orchestra, or a jazz band, or a choir, and use every element that the musical tool box can offer. The world of music I love so much, and I can change the costume depending on the part, and I’m actually in the film Picture Quote #1

I was not a band geek, per say. But me and my two older sisters played instruments, so I would come home and my sister Dana would be playing the clarinet or playing the piano, and I would play the saxophone, my other sister would be singing, my mom would be singing. I was not afraid to be musical. That was not something that I thought was uncool Picture Quote #1

Once I got the open tunings for some reason, I began to get the harmonic sophistication that I heard that my musical fountain inside was excited by. Once I got some interesting chords to play with, my writing began to come Picture Quote #1

We’ve always talked about doing something else and Campbell Scott is always busy and I’m always busy. But when we came up with the idea of doing the potato famine as a hip hop musical, I wanted somebody who was going to bring gravity Picture Quote #1

I majored in musical theatre performance at college, then went through years of waiting tables and temping while looking for acting work Picture Quote #1

My 9-year-old daughter can recite every line from ‘Easy Rider,’ and that is not an easy song to do. She raps all of Nicki Minaj and everything; she’s dope. She has my musical ear for sure. She sings, and she’s beautiful. It’s very powerful Picture Quote #1

Yeah, well I’ve always played comedy. My background is musical comedy theatre and that’s really where my training is. As an actor, that’s my training Picture Quote #1

After high school, I went to the University of Wisconsin Stevens Point for a year, and I studied musical theatre. By that point, I was like, ‘This is what I want to do.’ Picture Quote #1

When one knows at an early age that their gift, talent and direction is musical, one tends to focus on that and let nothing interfere or impede the forward motion toward the end of that rainbow. And after 50-something years of rockin’ out, you still realise there is no end to that distant rainbow until one’s last sunset Picture Quote #1

I really like the old stuff that I cut my musical teeth on, and I loved it when the industry was just like that, without really a genre. Today, country radio’s more aimed at a demographic than a genre. It just softens everything Picture Quote #1

Doing a musical is like having a kid. It’s out there alive somewhere. It’s not like a movie or a TV show where what we intended is what everyone will see. The kid can act out. The kid’s going to do what it wants to do Picture Quote #1

Every year I used to write a musical inspired by John Waters, and I would get all my friends together and put on this perverse, emotional, tragic musical Picture Quote #1
