lzfan715 Posted May 18, 2008 Share Posted May 18, 2008 I didn't copy and paste all my favourite ones, just some. Paul McCartney: "Somebody said to me, But the Beatles were anti-materialistic. That's a huge myth. John and I literally used to sit down and say, Now, let's write a swimming pool." Angus Young: "I'm sick to death of people saying we've made 11 albums that sounds exactly the same. In fact, we've made 12 albums that sound exactly the same." ( :hysterical) Janis Joplin: "I always wanted to be an artist, whatever that was, like other chicks want to be stewardesses...Being an intellectual creates a lot of questions and no answers. You can fill your life up with ideas and still go home lonely. All you really have that really matters are feelings. That's what music is to me." Grace Slick: "Through literacy you can begin to see the universe. Through music you can reach anybody. Between the two there is you, unstoppable." For the people just interested in the Zep ones: Jimmy Page: "My vocation is more in composition really than anything else--building up harmonies using the guitar, orchestrating the guitar like an army, a guitar army." Robert Plant: "We are trying to communicate a fulfilled ideal...I am a reflection of what I sing. Sometimes I have to get serious because the things I've been through are serious...The way I see it, rock n' roll is folk music." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MadScreamingGallery Posted May 18, 2008 Share Posted May 18, 2008 My favorites from that list: Eric Clapton: "The writing of the song is the therapy. The toughness is doing nothing. It's very dependent on your state of mind. And your emotional state as well. And a lot of it comes pouring out, you don't really have that much control with it. I've felt that the only way to survive was with dignity, pride and courage." Jim Morrison: "Listen, real poetry doesn't say anything; it just ticks off the possibilities. Opens all doors. You can walk through any one that suits you...I believe in a long, prolonged, derangement of the senses in order to obtain the unknown...I like any reaction I can get with my music. Just anything to get people to think." Grace Slick: "Through literacy you can begin to see the universe. Through music you can reach anybody. Between the two there is you, unstoppable."

Gainsbarre Posted May 20, 2008 Share Posted May 20, 2008 Grace Slick: "Through literacy you can begin to see the universe. Through music you can reach anybody. Between the two there is you, unstoppable." Yes between the two there's Grace Slick and "We Built This City (on rock & roll)" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimmie ray Posted May 20, 2008 Share Posted May 20, 2008 Grace Slick's motto for quite some time these days has been "Through overpriced paintings, you can reach into many wallets." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JethroTull Posted May 20, 2008 Share Posted May 20, 2008 This is not surprising.... Ian Anderson: "A lot of pop music is about stealing pocket money from children." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
