Solo Quotes

When I was on the road with Billy Bragg, it was cool because I was doing the whole thing solo and travel a lot by myself, which I quite like. I mean, I love being with friends, but it’s kind of nice having that alone time Picture Quote #1

As far as my solo record, I don’t want a gold record or anything, I’m happy to be small and to have the people appreciate the music who really like me for being me Picture Quote #1

I was in a group called Wild Orchid and it just wasn’t working. I wasn’t being myself. What I should have done was say. ‘Girls, it’s really time for me to go on my own. I need to fulfill this dream of mine to have a solo album.’ And I didn’t know how to do that. I wanted to please them Picture Quote #1

People sometimes ask if I want to be a solo artist, but it just wouldn’t be any fun being on your own Picture Quote #1

That is the true joy of being a solo artist. I can do whatever I want. I can go wherever I want. I can show up with my guitar and my song, and it can sound a hundred different ways. That’s the freedom of being on your own. The flipside is: That’s you on the cover. If it sucks, it’s your fault Picture Quote #1

I remember thinking that the rest of my life would be solo. I wasn’t weepy when I thought that - it was just a realization that I had gone this long being self-sufficient Picture Quote #1

I watched and learned about music as a member of Big Bang. Of course it’s important to show my charms as an artist by showing my abilities but that’s what our solo activities are for Picture Quote #1

I’m not generally a big solo guy, because I’m not into showing off that way Picture Quote #1

I’m more interested in melodic things. I think the biggest challenge when you go to play a solo is trying to invent a melody on the spot Picture Quote #1

I once asked Ozzy Osbourne, truly one of my favorite people in the world, if he was cool with singing Black Sabbath songs year after year, whether he was performing with Black Sabbath or out on a solo tour. He said it was great Picture Quote #1

I’m on a mission to make people aware that I’m not a solo artist. I’m sometimes challenged by the branding of Tim Crouch Picture Quote #1

No matter how brilliant your mind or strategy, if you’re playing a solo game, you’ll always lose out to a team Picture Quote #1

Living in Barcelona, I have my own little ghetto utopia. There are 3,000 ghost towns in Spain, and I’ve used the images of them a lot in my backdrops for my solo spoken-word stuff. The ghost towns could be from two buildings to 40 - things died out, or there were plagues, the roads don’t lead there, whatever Picture Quote #1

The requirements for illustrating an eight-page story are as different from that of an ensemble-cast mini-series as they are different from a solo ongoing. Whether or not they’re named Captain America or Ruby Thursday matters less to me than whether or not their characterization is consistent and actions logical... storytelling concerns Picture Quote #1

Once a month I play with a chamber music quartet. I play almost no solo music anymore because I so enjoy the interaction. The members of my quartet have become some of my best friends and so I really enjoy it now in ways that I didn’t before Picture Quote #1

My father’s a deacon, my mother’s a choir director, so I grew up in the church and singing in the choir, begging my mom if I could have a solo Picture Quote #1

When I was four, we had to choose a musical instrument to play at school, and I chose the cello. I played until I was 18, and although I found it nerve-racking to play solo, I loved playing in an orchestra. When I left school I didn’t carry on with it, which I regret Picture Quote #1

I hadn’t been exposed to music except in church. They used to have me singing a solo when I was five years old Picture Quote #1

But I really do have a soft spot for the solo shows. Any musician who writes and sings will tell you that’s the center of it, that is it. It’s almost like there’s something church-like about it and you gotta go back there, if you’re a songwriter that sings your material Picture Quote #1

I closed my eyes during a flute solo, wishing I could wrap the silvery sound around me like armor Picture Quote #1

Jam Cruise is actually a comfortable place for me. My jamming skills and my improvisational skills have improved immensely as I’ve gone more solo, because I’ve had this opportunity Picture Quote #1

In 1994, to motivate me to complete my pilot’s license, my good friend, Gregg Maryniak, gave me Charles Lindbergh’s autobiography of his solo flight across the Atlantic Picture Quote #1

I have always wanted a solo career, deep in the darkest pit of myself, but I didn’t dare admit it to myself even. It took me a long time to confront my fears Picture Quote #1

I feel that contemporary music, with very few exceptions, is missing the voice. You see an award show, you see a hundred extras on set dancing and special effects, and you don’t see that solo voice that was the trademark of Adele. It’s no accident that it was her album that ended up selling 27 million copies worldwide Picture Quote #1

Growing up, I really liked ‘Star Wars.’ Han Solo would’ve been really cool to meet. But my stuff was real low-brow. I was watching ‘Bugs Bunny.’ Picture Quote #1

I fix things all the time. Every time I do a solo, I re-check it and correct things that don’t hit the mark Picture Quote #1

I do enjoy my solo time ... I want to stay home and do soundtracks and watch TV in my underwear with a keyboard on my lap and just be a couch potato Picture Quote #1

I knew I didn’t want to make a country record just because that’s not really what I would have ever made as a solo artist Picture Quote #1
