No change in musical style will survive unless it is accompanied by a change in clothing style. Rock is to dress up to.
Music can change the world because it can change people.
In the back of your mind when you say you want to write music for the movies you're saying that you want a big house a big car and a boat. If you just wanted to write music you could live in Kansas and do it.
We also listen to PJ Harvey a lot of driving music. You need something a little more relaxing in the car.
I have a 6-year-old and his thing is to turn on Radio Disney in the car and I get such an allergic reaction to listening to that music and the context into which it falls. I'm really working on him about that.
When I'm in the car sometimes it's like 'Yeah man just put on the pop music.' You know what I mean? I don't want to listen to Tom Waits.
Like all soul singers I grew up singing in church but sometimes I would leave early and sit in the car listening to gospel band The Blind Boys of Alabama. Hearing their lead singer Clarence made me connect the idea of church and show business and see how I could make a career singing music that stirred the soul.
My health is wonderful. I work out. I'm working. Playing music. I have a beautiful wife a nice home a nice car I got money in the bank. I got three beautiful dogs that love me. Like I said I'm blessed. I survived.
I really like listening to music in my car.
It bothers me when I hear it in a car commercial or some such. But for the most part it's better than seeing sacred music relegated to the scrap heap.
I'm addicted to laughing. I go to see a lot of comedy shows. I'm addicted to playing really loud and obnoxious rock music in my car. I'm addicted to beautiful clothes and shoes. I just love gorgeous stuff and work hard to acquire pretty things shiny things. I'm addicted to shiny things!
I never listen to music in the house I listen to music in the car.
I love Lady Antebellum and Miranda Lambert - they write from the heart. But it's hard to find a country music lover in L.A. None of my friends really listen to it and they hate getting in the car with me because I just blast Taylor Swift.
All I want to know is that I can keep this house for the rest of my days and I want to make good music... and have the odd sports car in the garage obviously!
I always loved music. You know my parents said I started singing when I was 4 in the car.
That's what I love. Not being interrupted sitting in a car by myself and listening to music in the rain. There are so many great songs yet to sing.
I like to put on hardcore when I have to clean my apartment which I hate to do but it's motivational. I like old heavy metal when I'm outside working on my car. Music has definite functions for me.
When I was really little I would sit in the back of my dad's car when he'd be playing old-school music. He'd turn down the music and turn around and I'd be singing and know all of the words but I didn't even know how to talk. From then on I've always wanted to be a singer.
My parents were what I like to call proper musical fans. Lots of Sondheim was played in the car.
I'm gonna be making records anyway even if I had to sell 'em out of the trunk of my car. I'm that kind of musician and singer.
At the end of the day there's only a few major stars in the music business and then there's all these people that are aspiring to be that.
I was a fairly good amateur musician and I was an average professional. But the one thing I saw was that the big band business was fading.
I was always a singer. But I was always focused on being an actor as my trade. Music I do just for me. The movie business is very difficult but the music business is just impossible.
The movie business is very difficult but the music business is just impossible. So I'll play in bands and record and play songs with other people but for me it's a form of expression that all I need is me. I don't need cameras or agents I can just have a piano and sing and feel totally verified.
