Good Song Quotes (page 2)

It wasn't just about flashing lights and pinball machines blowing up and things like that. It was about using encores, bringing back the good songs and using techniques that I knew about from rock performance. Pete Townshend
Chris Martin quote: "I'm competitive with anyone who writes a good song - I don't..."
I'm competitive with anyone who writes a good song - I don't care if it's a band or solo artist or whoever. Chris Martin
Leonard Cohen quote: "If I knew where the good songs came from, I'd go there more..."
If I knew where the good songs came from, I'd go there more often. Leonard Cohen
If you're writing anything decent, it's in you, it's your spirit coming out. If it's not an expression of how a person genuinely feels, then it's not a good song done with any conviction. Alex Chilton
Stephen Sondheim quote: "So many good songs get written fast, because you know exactly..."
So many good songs get written fast, because you know exactly what has to work. Stephen Sondheim
There's a lot of personal stuff that can go into songwriting but there's also a lot of dramatization and fictionalization. You have to do that to make a good song. Norah Jones
Joan Armatrading quote: "Right from day one, you know when you've written a good song."
Right from day one, you know when you've written a good song. Joan Armatrading
I'm not afraid of being thought of as someone who is associated with film music. Why not? If it's a good song, what does it matter? Bryan Adams
Song of myself. With music strong I come, with my cornets and my drums, I play not marches for accepted victors only, I play marches for conquer'd and slain persons. Have you heard that it was good to gain the day? I also say it is good to fall, battles are lost in the same spirit in which they are won. I beat and pound for the dead, I blow through my embouchures my loudest and gayest for them. Vivas to those who have fail'd! And to those whose war-vessels sank in the sea! And to those... Walt Whitman
Andy Gibb quote: "Songs don't just come out of the air. They take time, but it's..."
Songs don't just come out of the air. They take time, but it's good fun, too. Maurice gave me encouragement. Andy Gibb
I've covered Avril Lavigne. I like good pop songs, and I don't think there should be any kind of preconceptions about where good pop songs come from. Ben Gibbard
The interstate seems to stretch for miles in a straight line as the fields and farms give way to a more barren landscape. "Loneliness has been good to me' is playing on my personal radio where I hear songs before I write them, and I wonder if this is just another mirage I will forget or if this will become a real song. It has been a long time since I've written a song, and the visits from the muse seem to be lessened by something. I still keep my faith that the muse knows best and whn I am... Neil Young
If you have a song that you think sounds like another song you should contact the publishing company and say I have a song here, let's cut a deal that lets everyone walk away feeling good. Wayne Coyne
I have a very eclectic iPod. So I've got my cardio people - so it's anything from Beyonce to some Jay-Z to Janelle Monae, her song 'Tightrope,' that's a good cardio song. And then I've got Sting. I've got Mary J. Blige. I've got The Beatles. I've got Michael Jackson. I try to pick the songs that I personally love. Michelle Obama
But the reality is when you write a song, you should be able to strip away all the instruments and just have a song right there with an acoustic guitar and a voice, and the song should be good. Dweezil Zappa
