Music, art, theater. I'm just a big fan of beauty.
Cinematography is infinite in its possibilities... much more so than music or language.
Manipulating shadows and tonality is like writing music or a poem.
In aptitude tests, I scored highest in music.
The music is the main thing and it's just as easy to write acceptable words.
Music is for people. The word 'pop' is simply short for popular. It means that people like it. I'm just a normal jerk who happens to make music. As long as my brain and fingers work, I'm cool.
David Lee Roth had the idea that if you covered a successful song, you were half way home. C'mon - Van Halen doing 'Dancing in the Streets'? It was stupid. I started feeling like I would rather bomb playing my own songs than be successful playing someone else's music.
Music is a dialogue.
When you leave the planet, you leave music behind.
Yeah, we have our differences, but we put those aside, and now we're making music. It's great.
San Francisco has always been my favorite booing city. I don't mean the people boo louder or longer, but there is a very special intimacy. When they boo you, you know they mean you. Music, that's what it is to me. One time in Kezar Stadium they gave me a standing boo.
I enjoy the videos with the sound off, where you can look at the belly buttons and everything. Really some pretty girls, but I don't know about the music.
And there's some Latino music I like, and some reggae music.
When you get to readin' about where the music and John Steinbeck and all those people like that come from, the further you go the more interesting it becomes.
The only thing that I miss lately in all music is somebody that will put out a melody that you can whistle. It doesn't seem like there's anything happening like that.
