Those who decide to use leisure as a means of mental development, who love good music, good books, good pictures, good plays, good company, good conversation - what are they? They are the happiest people in the world.
It was just music all day... My neighbors were musicians, and my brother and my family and everybody... It was just a musical neighborhood. I think the neighborhood was such a good family type of vibe for me that I didn't even realize some of the people weren't my real family till later on in life.
Every year, I always go abroad with dark music, and I'm going to these places, and I feel like I want a party rep - I want something that everyone is going to go crazy to and enjoy and have a good feeling.
My best hostess tip is to have good food and really good music!
I'm not a pretty princess, and I'm aware of that, so I like music that is really intense, really bold, and characters that in a way almost have a dark side and are kind of evil because, for me, that's when I feel my strongest and fiercest, when I'm not necessarily the good girl.
I want them to come away with discovering the music inside them. And not thinking about themselves as jazz musicians, but thinking about themselves as good human beings, striving to be a great person and maybe they'll become a great musician.
I like playing music because it's a good living and I get satisfaction from it. But I can't feed my family with satisfaction.
Back in the '90s, if you did mail order in music, you could make a good living doing it if you could hustle.
I made a good living for a teenager. And I had to learn all different kinds of music - jazz, swing, Motown, pop - and that inspired what kind of music I started to write.
If you have good songs and a real desire to make music, the next thing to do, instead of approach record companies, is to get yourself a really good manager because then it allows you to focus on your profession of being a musician. Then they can focus on the darker art of the record label and the music industry.
Clothes are like a good meal, a good movie, great pieces of music.
A good mind should tell the difference between noise and music.
I want to make my music and be a happy woman, a good wife, a good mom and one day hopefully have a child of my own.
I only had, like, 4 CDs when I was in college, and one of them was the soundtrack to 'Good Morning Vietnam' - that's how much I don't know about music.
What I like to do is just make good music, good movies, hopefully perform a good show full of energy and just have some fun.
What's happening to me is I'm still happy and functioning, being able to listen to music, see good movies, read good books. What else is there that I can't, you know, I mean, I'm OK.
If one plays good music, people don't listen and if one plays bad music people don't talk.
If it's good music, it's good music.
Music is life itself. What would this world be without good music? No matter what kind it is.
All the good music has already been written by people with wigs and stuff.
