I think every revolutionary act is an act of love. Every song that I've written, it is because of my desire to use music as a way to empower and re-humanize people who are living in a dehumanizing setting. The song is in order to better the human condition.

'Watchmen' is like the music you feel is written just for you. 'That's my song, no one else gets that but me.' That's why the fan base is so rabid, because they feel personal about it.
- Man
- |

I'm scared of karaoke. I think if I did have a go to karaoke song, it would be 'Whatta Man' by Salt-n-Pepa.
- Big Band
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
We've gone further on this album, where we have a Big Band song, kind of a Sinatra-type song; we have a couple songs that have electronic music on them. We've got a couple rock songs, maybe a little heavier than what we've done. So the title 'Jekyll & Hyde' really covers the breadth of the record.
- Live

- Fast

- Nov 07, 2020
I did a song in eight minutes. I thought everybody could write songs that fast. But working with a lot of them, they don't.

When I first started, the very first body of music I made when I got signed to Atlantic were songs with titles like 'Unify' and 'You're Special.' And there's this song that reminds me of Meghan Trainor that I wrote, about a woman's body and not conforming, when I first started in music.
- Think
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
My favorite song is called 'Reachout.' There are so many different stories told in that song. I think anyone who listens to it will gather a different meaning, but each answer is true. I also like the sound of it, period - there are a lot of classical influences.
- Good Song
- |

She danced a jig, she sung a song that took my heart away.
- Me
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
To me, a song is not finished. To me, there's no such thing as a finished anything. All of Beethoven's nine symphonies, to me, are one. I think of it as having no beginning and no end.

I've always written by myself. I've never been in a situation where the whole band sat in a room and wrote a song. I don't work that way.
- Old Days
- |

The song 'Assassins Of Youth'... 'Assassins of youths' is what they used to call drugs in the old days when they first started the anti-drug campaign. And it's kind of an anti-drug record.

- |
- Nov 07, 2020

- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Even in the beginning, when we knew there was a legal argument about how much our song sounds like his song, as one songwriter to another, I wasn't sure that Cat Stevens would take that as bad.
- Like
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I just make up lyrics off the top of my head. A lot of times, there's a phrase I really like, and I kind of build the song around that.
- Summer
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
One way in which 'Friends' did resemble 'Seinfeld' is that it really found its audience over the summer of 1995 in reruns. That's when the main title song, 'I'll Be There for You', by the Rembrandts, exploded, too.
- Me
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
'Deacon Blues' was special for me. It's the only time I remember mixing a record all day and, when the mix was done, feeling like I wanted to hear it over and over again. It was the comprehensive sound of the thing: the song itself, its character, the way the instruments sounded, and the way Tom Scott's tight horn arrangement fit in.
- Singing
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Sometimes when you belt, it kinda makes the song more dramatic than it really needs to be. There are certain songs that you hear, and you're like, 'Wow, he's singing about his girlfriend, but he sounds kinda mad the way he's yelling, 'You're so pretty!''
- Like
- |
- Nov 07, 2020

Growing up, all I cared about in a song, before I really listened to lyrics, was that beat.
- Me
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
It's cliche, but everybody says, 'We're all one song away,' and it's so true. The difference between me and the guy down the street busking with his guitar case open is just one song.
- Crazy
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I did a smaller gig with an acoustic guitar and a drum machine. In one song, something wrong happened with the drum machine. I tried to cover up the mistake by playing faster and improvising a new song but it became crazy, and I had to admit it was all a mess.
- Funny Thing
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
The funny thing is, people's perceptions of what a song is about is usually wrong a majority of the time. But they're still going to read what they want to into it.
- Nov 07, 2020
With technology now, you can go in and sing a song, and for $100,000, you will sound flawless.
- Ride
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
'Helter-Skelter' was the motive for the murders. Manson borrowed that term from a Beatles song on the 'White Album.' In England, helter-skelter is a playground ride. To Manson, helter-skelter meant a war between whites and blacks that the Beatles were in favor of.
- Never
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
When we start to write for a new record, we never really know what we're doing. We don't come into the room with a set of ideas, but miraculously, a song comes out of it.
- Sad
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
With a track like 'White Christmas,' everybody has done that song in every format you can imagine, so I just looked at the chords at that particular song and what chords would make it work. That's kind of quite a sad song, and I had this idea of someone singing it in the subway, someone who is homeless, old and sad.
- Moment
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
It's always about trying to make everything go with the music, like a script. It's not like, 'Let's have a confetti gun!' If I ever have one of those, it will be because it's absolutely the right thing at the moment in the song. I can't just go get a confetti gun.
- Life
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I'm inspired by Prince on every level; the whole androgynous thing, the ambiguity in his gender and his foundation - it's amazing. That's the way I think about clothes, in relation to my personality and my life. It's just an extension of who I am, like a song.
- Good
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I've always felt that to deliver a song successfully, you have to be an actress. A good actress becomes the part, just as a good singer becomes the song.
- Hate
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I hate being manipulated by song. Don't tell me what I should be feeling. I don't want cellos or violins to be telling me that I should be bawling right now.
- Desert
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
The song 'What Goes Up' was inspired as I was playing the piano and reminiscing about the Spaceship One launches I witnessed in the Mojave desert. It is an awesome thing to comprehend the magnitude of what a human being dreams and imagines can be realized.
- Me
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
But when you hear the complete album, it gets dark, really straight-up rock, with some really intimate moments with just me and the piano. It's not completely me because there are parts of me that aren't on that song, that are on the album.
- Home
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
When I go to a gig and I hear a song that I really like, a song that hits home to me or hits an emotional nerve, if I could ever recreate that for someone, that would be the ultimate goal.
- Know
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I try to write down every song that comes to me, even though I know that every song that comes to me isn't a song that I need to sing.
- Different Parts
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
When you listen to my music, you hear that there are all these voices going on in different parts of the song. That's because I was always around so many voices in church.
- Need
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
There is a formula that allows you to write a decent song. But a song like 'You're All I Need to Get By,' it just writes itself.
- Great
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
A friend and I were talking about how I don't like carnival rides that make me dizzy. I looked up from the conversation and thought, 'Dizzy - that sounds like a great title for a song.' The next day, I went into the studio with some co-writers, and we wrote that song.
- Big Story
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Usually, when I'm rappin', I'm creating a big story or a concept song that sounds like a movie to me.
- Control
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Pretty much all the programming on our CDs is done by me personally, so I've kind of been able to have complete control of what sounds I'm looking for to complete a song.
- Moment
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
You kind of have to celebrate the moment that you get to create something that you love that falls into the parameters of a 3-minute-and-20-second song, to try to be creative inside of those parameters.
- Culture
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
EDM has trained a new generation of listeners' ears to accept a much broader range of what equals a song. EDM has become top 40 stuff: those sounds, those styles, those ways of thinking about song structure - even thinking that vocals aren't necessarily the central element - those ideas have made their way into popular culture.
- City
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
You go to Miami, and you might only hear one Tyga song on the radio. You go to L.A., and you might hear six or seven on the radio. There's certain things you do for your city.
