Andy Taylor Zitate auf Englisch

Zitat des Tages von Andy Taylor:

We were very young in Duran, and to get pushed in a corner can be very difficult to get out of.

If you were looking at where you would like your career to go, then you would have to cherry pick The Stones. People love coming to see them. They are it, they are the most definitive rock n roll band ever.

Andy Taylor

Some of those songs, you really have to bite them. You challenge yourself, you challenge the audience, you do something different. People weren't expecting it.

Andy Taylor

We had a huge audience, we sold truckloads of albums. If we do something that's cool, people will listen to it. If we don't, we would be selling people short.

Andy Taylor

The five of us don't know how to exist in any other way. We are an ambitious bunch, I guess.

Andy Taylor

We didn't just want to go out and do that whole greatest hits thing.

Andy Taylor

We wanted to get everyone back focused on the fact we are playing live again. It really does sound great.

Andy Taylor

The great thing about the Internet is that it allows people to find and consume music.

Andy Taylor

When you have such a huge past, a big background as we have, you can play off that - a lot of people do. But we felt we wouldn't have a legitimate future unless we put something new together.

Andy Taylor

Those were the days, you know. It's an English thing; as soon as it's gets to 6 pm, you have to go and have a drink. We used to stick to that religiously.

Andy Taylor

Music is escapism, it's entertainment.

Andy Taylor

Melodic songs that people can relate to has always been our thing.

Andy Taylor

We felt if we didn't have new material in us and we didn't have a real reason to exist, then we probably wouldn't have done an 80's revival thing. We are very conscious about the fact that's what we are as a bunch of people.

Andy Taylor

When you are younger, you are running on that pure naive adrenalin, you don't have any real responsibility aside from making sure you get there and play. And there's usually someone there to help you do that!

Andy Taylor

When you don't have a record label and you have been on your own as we have, you can look at all these other ways you can get in touch with other people and get music out there again.

Andy Taylor

This is a very screwed-up business. Record labels don't sign a lot of bands these days. We just want to find a home and stay there and make records and do our thing and not have to look over our shoulder.

Andy Taylor

We were very young in Duran, and to get pushed in a corner can be very difficult to get out of.

Andy Taylor

It was mind-blowing. It was a small place with 2,000 standing-up tickets. It's great to have your band back and working and playing again, people have been so generous.

Andy Taylor

I don't think you need a record deal to write songs. You don't need any other reason than you want to do it. It's a far cry from why some people do music today. They make it to order, which is pretty horrible.

Andy Taylor

You want to have stability in the commercial aspect of your operation.

Andy Taylor

I discovered that it was a lonely world being a solo artist. Then I started working with another solo artist, Rod Stewart, and he used to tell me how lonely he was!
