Radio Quotes

I have proven that being a perfectionist can be profitable and admirable when creating content across the board: in television, books, newspapers, radio, videos Picture Quote #1

Life isn’t a music player where you choose whats being played, it is a radio where you have to enjoy whats being played Picture Quote #1

I think the interview form works best on the radio. There are a lot of personality traits conveyed in a person’s voice, the rhythm of their speech or how confident they sound Picture Quote #1

When I was a kid, I used to listen to my Emerson radio late at night under the covers. I started by listening to jazz in the late 1940s and then vocal harmony groups like the Four Freshmen, the Modernaires and the Hi-Lo’s. I loved Stan Kenton’s big band - with those dark chords and musicians who could swing cool with individual sounds Picture Quote #1

At home, the radio was a big source and the classic radio programs we would listen to like Amos and Andy and whatever other ones there were Picture Quote #1

My first job was singing on the Cas Walker radio show in Knoxville, Tennessee. I was about 10 years old, and I thought it was big time Picture Quote #1

As a black artist in America, you know, it is so segregated as far as the radio goes and how they position music on the radio Picture Quote #1

You’ve got the Wall Street situation, the sub-prime situation. You’ve got a black president. We’ve got wars. We’ve got unemployment. But the music doesn’t reflect that. And I challenge anybody to show me a music that’s on the radio that reflects that Picture Quote #1

Since the beginning of my recording career in 1975, I have had a little difficulty because the pop stations think I’m a jazzer who doesn’t have a feeling for pop, so it’s hard to get my records played. Similarly, black urban radio doesn’t understand that with my R Picture Quote #1

I tend to listen to the artists that originally inspired me to start playing music in the first place, because there is a multitude of wisdom that can be gained by bands like Black Sabbath, Depeche Mode, Pink Floyd and the Cure. I think if we were to pay close attention to what’s on the radio right now then we’d lose our identity entirely Picture Quote #1

Quite frankly, I’ve always listened to the black side of the radio dial. Where I grew up, there was a lot of it and there was a lot of live music around Picture Quote #1

The household I grew up in... was rather like an Ovaltine advert. There was a huge fire, a kettle on the fire, the oven with the bread being baked every day, and there was the radio; it was very magical to hear all these wonderful programmes Picture Quote #1

Radio listeners often have a very fertile imagination when it comes to body shape Picture Quote #1

Before bed, I read a book or flip on the radio - I’m not picky, I’ll just turn it on and see what comes up. I burn a yummy lavender- scented candle Picture Quote #1

I know one thing - if I didn’t have TV and theatre and radio, the world would be a much more boring place Picture Quote #1

For as long as I can remember, I have been fascinated by things large and small. I wanted to know what made my watch tick, my radio play, and my house stand. I wanted to know who invented the bottle cap and who designed the bridge. I guess from early on I wanted to be an engineer Picture Quote #1

Radio was used powerfully by Josef Goebbels to disseminate Nazi propaganda, and just as powerfully by King George VI to inspire the British people to fight invasion Picture Quote #1

The BBC’s television, radio and online services remain an important part of British culture and the fact the BBC continues to thrive amongst audiences at home and abroad is testament to a professional and dedicated management team who are committed to providing a quality public service Picture Quote #1

I have four older siblings and one younger, and all three of my brothers are in the music industry. My dad was really involved in music, too, with the disco, and he also started Radio Caroline and was the one who invented pirate radio, if you like, off on a coast in England on a boat Picture Quote #1

I like creating something from nothing and hearing it on the radio or on stage or from somebody driving down the street singing it. It’s like building a house, taking a vacant piece of land, and next thing you know, there’s a house with somebody living in it Picture Quote #1
