Famous Quotes & Sayings

Vanessa Williams

They can hear a lot of hits. They can hear a lot of my hits -- my current album is hits from the 70s, my favorite stuff. So they'll hear Chaka Kahn, the Ohio Players, and they'll also hear the ones they know and love,

It's interesting, because I named my first album after my dad because I wanted to find him. My second album was named after my mom because I felt like I learned all my creative talents I learned from her. All the survival stuff, too. And then the next album is 'Maya,' which is not my real name. It's fake.

Deana Carter

I wanted this album to sound like a big crocheted blanket - to be warm yet to have a lot of space.

Paul Wall

I've been working in the studio with T Farris, who A&Red my first album and also Mike Jones' album. We're pumping out a lot of hits with Houston producers.

Nick Rhodes

Oh, I love bios! I wouldn't say traditionally it was a "concept album." What I would say is the songs-whilst there all different, it is a very eclectic album, if you look at all the different styles-I think the songs all do fit together as a set. It's probably the most complete album we've made for many years.

Ethan Iverson

It made for such a powerful impression. Everybody was talking about how this Nirvana tune was on there. But the truth of that matter is that Herbie Hancock put out an album 10 years ago with Nirvana on it.

Theophilus London

Creating the album 'VIBES' has been the biggest life lesson I have ever learned.

John Deacon

Nas

'Stillmatic' is the rebirth of 'Illmatic,' my first debut album to come out in 1994. 'Stillmatic' is me coming full circle in my career and with everything, and just bringing pure hip-hop back.

I really think I've found me finally in the music. You know, I had put an album out before, 'Embrace Me,' and it's been seven years since that. So I was discovering who I was. And I still am discovering, but I think now I know a little bit more of who I am. So that's what's pushing me.

Niall Horan

A personal highlight was probably when we got a No. 1 in the U.K. and when the album went to No. 1 in America. The top four that week was us, Adele, Guns N' Roses and Bruce Springsteen. It was ridiculous seeing those names there. Being the first band from the U.K. and Ireland to go to America and debut at No. 1 is just unbelievable.

Rod Stewart

The key to it all is trying to put my own stamp on these songs, because they have been done so many times-just not by someone who sang 'Hot Legs' and 'Maggie May!' Since this album will be the last one for now, I wanted to make it really special.

Steve Martin

I first thought maybe I'd do a banjo presentation record, where I'd play a couple of songs and get a bunch of other players to do the rest. Then I realized I had enough of my own songs to do an album of them.

Tom Hamilton

An album is a photograph of who you are at a given period of time.

Sean Paul

'Time Rolls On' is my most political piece so far. It's not on my album because people didn't support it.

Lisa Gerrard

About half the set is new stuff. We save the older pieces for the encores, if we get them. We haven't written together in a while, but we've both brought in things we've written on our own. We don't know if there will be a new album yet; we'll have to wait and see how Brendan is feeling at the end of all this.

Richie Sambora

About two weeks before I left (to promote the new album), God just hit the creative gas pedal on me and I wrote like 14 new songs, ... So I have an album sitting in my pocket.

Steve Marriott

America has done a lot for us, and for me particularly. The audiences are incredible. They are as important on the new album as we are.

Also, just straight off the bat, we went in, had some lunch, talked about music, and we went back to our little studio here. It wasn't planned or anything, but we ended up working on a song right then. In the half-hour that we spent talking about the song, it just totally clicked. It just worked. You could feel it. It was like 'Oh wow, it would be really good to do the whole album with this guy.' It was fun.

This album will have songs like Far from Reality and his other songs.

Natalie Maines

This album was total therapy. I'm way more at peace now. Writing these songs and saying everything we had to say makes it possible to move on.

Duff McKagan

This album really has to make a statement. We've toured for 18 months. Now we have a brand name. Now we know each other as a band. The first album was just us together at home, a spontaneous product. Now it's time to make that record.

Greg Long

This album is a strong lyrical record that promotes the message of the gospel.

Tom Araya

This album is actually like a culmination of everything we've done. There's one song that I'm thinking will surprise everybody, because of the song itself. I'm not going to say why, because you have to keep that element of surprise, dude. Musically, it's going to blow everybody away. It's going to trip everyone out. It has all the elements of everything we've done. No one's going to be disappointed with this record. It's fast, heavy maybe faster than anything we've done before. It's going to be brutal. It's what everyone expects from a Slayer record.

Macy Gray

This album is about freedom and working hard and having an open mind,

Neil Young

This album is about exchanging ideas. It's about getting a message out. It's about empowering people by giving them a voice. I know not everyone believes what I say is what they think, but red and blue is not black and white. We're all together. It's a record about unification.
