We're five people, five individuals who came together to create something, to make music and to complete each other musically, to form a perfect circle.
People listen to music with cavemen ears: Is it a bird song or the call of a lion? The audience at a musical is dancing in their hearts.
The music that I wrote and recorded is music that I really enjoy listening to. It's just dumb luck that a lot of other people do, too.
I like great music, but who doesn’t? Oh yeah, deaf people.
Oh, stuff the critics. I don't care. Too many people are snooty about classical. Look, I wasn't brought up in a home where we listened to classical music. It was a singing teacher that thought it would be best for my voice. Then I moved into crossove...
I know that people don't listen to music much in the way when they'll put on a CD, sit down, have a drink or go on a car journey. People pick and choose and just listen to tracks. But when I make a record, I try to think about it as a 50 minute music...
I'm wary about this thing about being in the generation of social networking where people are like, 'I am my musical taste.' I am not just a collection of music. Or a collection of movies. I think that's a thing that people romanticize: 'Oh my God, s...
A good interpreter can take a piece of bad music and make it sound pretty decent, while a bad interpreter can take good music and make it sound cheap. I can tell that some people have a bad taste, and unlike on the piano, they smear around a lot, tha...
The thing that will never go away is that connection you make with a band or a song where you're moved by the fact that it's real people making music. You make that human connection with a song like 'Let It Be' or 'Long and Winding Road' or a song li...
It's hard to get people at a record company to talk about music. They don't seem to want to talk about music, it's all marketing, and that's part of a record, you gotta get it out there, people have gotta hear it, but you could do it in a way that's ...
If you're making music, you must want to turn other people on to it, whether you're number one in the charts or number 60. I don't know, that's a commercial thing, but just the fact that other people like you... there's no point in making music, othe...
I'm going to say this as an ethereal effect, not something that people are necessarily aware of while it's happening, but my theory is that the proliferation of MP3 files have really diminished people's appreciation of music. If your own choice was t...
Some people have lives; some people have music.
Meeting all the wonderful, new people and people appreciating my new music has been a really fun and blessed ride.
There just is exponentially more money in the movie business than in the music business. As a result there are more people involved in the creative process.
At home, we don't listen to our music-we listen to other people's music. It keeps you attached to the show business world.
The people on the business side in the music business are kind of different from the theatre business. I think it's partly because there are different pressures on the industries.
I very rarely listen to music in my car - a lot of people make fun of me for it. But sometimes I listen to music on YouTube. I'm like a teenager.
I love Broadway. And, I listen to country music, which I think a lot of people find surprising.
The trouble with music appreciation in general is that people are taught to have too much respect for music they should be taught to love it instead.
Jazz is not the popular culture. Jazz is in the same position in our culture as classical music. A very small minority of people really love it.
