A frustration that I've had recently is that a lot of songs that I listen to draw on scenarios that aren't very realistic, so I just wanted to do something that was more down to earth. And I think my fans, who already know a lot about me, will learn something new.
Quote by -Louis Tomlinson
I quite like American music, like The Fray - I'm a massive fan of them - and The Killers. I also like more acoustic stuff like Ed Sheeran; I like this English songwriter James Morrison and another singer called Ben Howard.
Quote by -Louis Tomlinson
My favorite music isn't necessarily the songs that One Direction come out with. That doesn't mean to say I don't secretly really love some of our songs, which I do.
Quote by -Louis Tomlinson
My personal tastes... I actually like quite a bit acoustic and more mellow kinds of things. I quite like American music, like The Fray, I'm a massive fan of them, and The Killers.

Quote by -Carson McCullers

Quote by -Carson McCullers

Quote by -Ben Carson
"The whole world was this symphony, and there was not enough of her to listen."
Quote by -Carson McCullers
"Music when healthy, is the teacher of perfect order, and when depraved, the teacher of perfect disorder."
Quote by -John Ruskin
"I'm glad I was born when I was. My time was the golden age of variety. If I were starting out again now, maybe things would happen for me, but it certainly would not be on a variety show with 28 musicians, 12 dancers, two major guest stars, 50 costumes a week by Bob Mackie. The networks just wouldn't spend the money today."
Quote by -Carol Burnett
"On the good days, my mother would haul out the ukulele and we'd sit around the kitchen table - it was a cardboard table with a linoleum top - and sing."
Quote by -Carol Burnett
"I love 'Modern Family.' And I love 'Glee' - the singing, the music - Jane Lynch just kills me."
Quote by -Carol Burnett
"At the end of the day, you want to be always the one that's one step ahead of everybody, and when it comes to hip-hop, culture and art, you want to be that signature guy."
Quote by -Carmelo Anthony
“A musician must make music, an artist must paint, a poet must write, if he is to be ultimately at peace with himself. What a man can be, he must be”
Quote by -Abraham Maslow
“A musician must make music, an artist must paint, an poet must write, if he is to be ultimately at peace with himself. What a man can be, he must be. This weed we call self-actualization….It refers to man’s desire for self-fulfillment, namely to the tendency for him to become actually in what he is potentially: to become everything one is capable of becoming.”
Quote by -Abraham Maslow
“There is nothing more to be said or to be done tonight, so hand me over my violin and let us try to forget for half an hour the miserable weather and the still more miserable ways of our fellowmen.”
Quote by -Arthur Conan Doyle
“A sandwich and a cup of coffee, and then off to violin-land, where all is sweetness and delicacy and harmony, and there are no red-headed clients to vex us with their conundrums.”
Quote by -Arthur Conan Doyle
Oh to be a pear tree – any tree in bloom! With kissing bees singing of the beginning of the world!
Quote by -Zora Neale Hurston
As a woman, you spend so much time either cooking or getting ready to go somewhere. I like to have music when I'm doing either of these things.
Quote by -Zoe Saldana
Music is a very big participant in everything I do, from the moment I wake up to the moment I go to bed.
Quote by -Zoe Saldana
Life isn’t a music player where you choose whats being played, it is a radio where you have to enjoy whats being played.
Quote by -Zayn Malik
One Direction is the main thing I'm doing and I'm 100 per cent dedicated to the group.
Quote by -Zayn Malik
I come from a place, with all due respect, who's never had a music star in hip-hop. So the odds is already against me.
Quote by -Wale
I go out, but not too much. When I'm on tour, I just write a lot of music and sleep.
Quote by -Wale
You don't necessarily pick the singles that you want when you're making a record, but for the most part it's the same process. You're the artist - you make the music that you want to make.
Quote by -Wale
Mix-tapes are something that have been going on for a while. They've been pretty important to hip-hop for the past 10 years. It's the way we advertise our music to the public for free.
Quote by -Wale
You can be a rapper born and raised in go-go music, violence, drugs, crack, Reagonomics, and still, if you hear 'Wake Me Up Before You Go-Go,' you're going to find a way to hum along. Guilty pleasures? It don't matter. Sue me - I like the song. To dance to it is another matter.
Quote by -Wale
I can take an opinion, but I don't like when you try and spew hate and contaminate the way other people think. I feel like I'm one of the people that's always made music for the common man. That's why I don't really live my life the way I could. I don't stunt as much as I could stunt, 'cause that's not who my music is for.
Quote by -Wale
As much as I don't want to admit it, my fans are the only ones that can hurt my feelings when they're not pleased with what I'm presenting. I want it to be perfect for them. I want them to have a different sense of pride in my music.
Quote by -Wale
I believe in God and the whole business but I love women best, music and science next, whiskey next, God fourth, and my fellowman hardly at all.
Quote by -Walker Percy
From oriole to crow, note the decline In music. Crow is realist. But, then, Oriole, also, may be realist.
Quote by -Wallace Stevens
I listen to 50 Cent, Jay-Z, Stereophonics, Arctic Monkeys; also the musical Oliver - I can sing every tune.
Quote by -Wayne Rooney
