Zitat des Tages von Amos Lee:
I love vinyl, man.
I like down-to-earth people.
I can relate to soul, R&B... whatever people want to call me is fine. I just hope it makes them feel something.
I do not go on my Wikipedia page. There's just too much weird information on there for me to pick apart.
I don't really hang out with a lot of celebrities.
You need a strong sense of 'otherness' to be able to create in your life.
The closest place that I feel like I come to having religious moments is always musical.
I don't really know what 'folk music' means anymore.
I'm always flattered and honored when people cover my music or sing my songs, no matter where it is.
Every time I write a song I feel really lucky and kind of surprised. Not surprised that I wrote it, but just surprised that things exist that you don't know about.
There's nothing but spirit in music. That's all it is. Yeah, there's a lot of intellectual elements to it, but no matter how you approach it, it's all spirit.
You never really get a chance to sit down with the people you love, unless you really make an effort to do it. It doesn't just happen naturally anymore.
I love what I do, so I don't mind working.
I love when people are coming up and they're working hard and you can see that they're really focused on the process to their music. I really dig that. As a musician, it's nice to see people who really care about the process.
I don't really know that there's any real rules for songwriting.
I'm not into cold weather, I like warm weather.
I wasn't a very good teacher.
As I've moved along - not only my life, but my career and things like that - you look at yourself and start going, 'Oh, man, are you still doing what you set out to do? Are the ideals you had still the same?' Sometimes you measure up and sometimes you don't.
