This trial is moving like a freight train.
It's kind of ridiculous that I find inspiration in just getting away from everything. But when you've gone through it, you realize that it's the enemy. It's a distraction from what you're really doing. You've got to keep moving. Like a shark.
I have a suggestion for all of those award seekers and blue ribbon hunters. Spend your efforts on making art that connects with people. Awards impress the grandkids but they don't move the gauge on selling your product. Art needs to touch the emotions of the buyer.
Passion, for me, is like a shark - it never stops moving.
I love the way art moves people emotionally. I love the fact that when someone purchases art it is the one thing that will last for generations.
Mastery is the rudder, Mystery is the sail and Magic the wind to move you in your chosen direction.
I'd Like to Buy the World a Coke.
We have a secret project at Third Man where we want to have the first vinyl record played in outer space. We want to launch a balloon that carries a vinyl record player.
People have got to know whether or not their president is a crook. Well, I am not a crook.
Well, as a songwriter, it's really dangerous to use the word love in a song. It's a word that has been used in songs so many millions of times before, and it's the most popular topic to ever write about.
Well any man with a microphonecan tell you what he loves the mostand you know why you love at allif you're thinking of the holy ghostif you're thinking of the holy ghost.
Well any man with a microphone can tell you what he loves the most and you know why you love at all if you're thinking of the holy ghost if you're thinking of the holy ghost.
Let me just say that if whatever said radio station tries to blacklist us for my comments about their balloons, I would like them to know I want a written apology tomorrow for interrupting my song.
People aren't buying records like they used to, so it's nice to try to figure out a way to make them do it. I would enjoy the same thing to own an old movie house, to try to trick people to come in - like having 3-D or Smell-o-Vision or Vibra-Vision or something. Mcguffins to get people interested.
