Favorite Music Quotes?

Re: Favorite Music Quotes?

"And everything I know is what I need to know
And everything I do's been done before
Every sentence in my head
Someone else has said
At each end of my life is an open door"

-The Who, 905


"Her hair reminds me of a warm safe place
Where as a child I'd hide
And pray for the thunder
And the rain
To quietly pass me by"

-Guns & Roses, Sweet Child O'Mine


When I'm tired and thinking cold
I hide in my music, forget the day
And dream of a girl I used to know
I closed my eyes and she slipped away

-Boston, More Than A Feeling

Re: Favorite Music Quotes?

Nas and Lupe Fiasco are living, breathing quotables

My skin is a art gallery, right
With paintings of crucifixes
Hopin' to save me from all the dangers in the music business
Was once a young gangsta hangin' with youth offenders
But since I tasted paper it started losin the friendships
Watchin' kids freeze in winters, they still poor
How could I tease them with Benz's and feel no remorse
Drivin' past them in the lively fashion, diamond colors clashin'
Red stones, blue stones, red bones and black ones
**** did I expect with bucket seats in a Lex
And spendin' time in Chuckie Cheese with Little Des
Got guns when I'm with my daughter
Hate to bring a violent aura in her presence
She knows what daddy taught her, it's lessons
Black princess it's a ugly world
I put my life up for yours, see I love that girl
Could you believe even my shadow's jealous
My skin is mad at my flesh, my flesh hates my own bones
My brain hates my heart, my heart makes the songs
Though my songs come from the Father
I'm lonely...
Hold me, it's gettin' darker

-Nas, Every Ghetto

I never sleep, 'cause sleep is the cousin of death

- Nas, NY State of Mind

Writing in my book of rhymes all my words pass the margins

- Nas, The World is Yours

The swans in the pond called my duck ugly

- Lupe Fiasco, I Gotcha

I'm just trying to do the opposite of left
As long as there's the opposite of death
You test, and I might just bring the opposite of life
'Til there's no one the opposite of right

- Lupe Fiasco, Game Time

I stack my paper and throw off my cents (sense)
This is top floor(flow), better look out below
Pennys from heaven is the same as a semi from the second
And I reign (rain) supreme
Turn your umbrellas upside down
Did you even catch the change (double meaning) in theme?

-Lupe Fiasco, Failure

There's many many many more...

Pearl Jam - Even Flow
Dark grin, he can't help when he's happy looks insane.

Re: Favorite Music Quotes?

That whole album is quotable.

Agreed, but that's my favorite. If you listen closely, he laughs a bit as he's singing the last line.

Said she was a fan of mine
Knew she was New Jersey (Devils)
But said that she was Anaheim (Angels)

On the outside he looks good, but he's actually feeling like ****.

Which is pretty funny, considering California's the state that's a deteriorating piece of ****.
