Musikgeschäft / Music Business Zitate auf Englisch

Zitat des Tages über Musikgeschäft / Music Business:

We do things on an exchange basis in the music business - it keeps the wheels turning. That's how I can get people like Slash, Flea and Kris Kristofferson on my album. Collaboration should be done through trades rather than charging each other a fortune. Ronnie Wood

I really worked with icons in the music business, which really had a strong effect on me. It wasn't just pick-up gigs.

Kevin Eubanks

The music business used to carry a certain amount of brotherly love, but it isn't that way now.

Jimmy Rushing

I happened to come along in the music business when there was no trend.

Elvis Presley

You know how it is with drawers and labels in the music business. They don't want anything to be complicated. They just want it simple, as simple as possible.

Mark McGrath

No, I mean we'd all definitely involved in the music business someway or another, because we're all living with it, and in it, and also we've got all sorts of things we would like to do.

John Deacon

The music business is really a spiritual business whether we know it or not.

Kurtis Blow

The bricks and mortar of the music business, they don't exist any longer.

John Oates

I finished high school, moved to Nashville for college, and set out to break into the music business. Every night when I called home with news of my experiences, my mom and dad would encourage me to keep taking those small steps.

Trisha Yearwood

I used to go with him and I'd sometimes play, take over from him. That was my first taste of the music business, I suppose, but I was also in the youth orchestra at Johnston Grammar.

Trevor Horn

When I was 17-years-old, I was in the music business.

Scott Caan

I think there is a big difference between the music business and music. And my relationship is to music, not music business. I think the business will keep changing, but music won't. Music will be there.

Yoko Ono

We're not uncomfortable with it, and we've already been through enough of the music business where I'm not really worried that commercial success is going to in some way - we're already past saving, you know what I mean? It's too late for us.

Jerry Garcia

I like thinking of myself as invisible. I find it a very advantageous way to live. Unfortunately, its not the way the music business works. If you don't create some kind of public image, it gets created for you.

Tom Verlaine

It wasn't so much that I had to leave to make it in the music business as I was curious to be out on my own and sort of explore. I never felt that where I was ever influenced my songwriting.

Matthew Sweet

It might take some here and there, but Apple's market share in the global computer business has really shrunk pretty far, and where they've been making success recently is not in the computer business but in the iPod music business.

Kevin Rollins

I think the music business is probably not happy with what we've done, because the people buying the record have actually got to pick what they want to buy, rather than being told what they should buy.

John Otway

Music has always been an important thing to me in my life and understand I've worked in the music business.

Taylor Hackford

The music business can be very cold. And it doesn't honor its elders.

Brenda Lee

Most artists, you know, you spend their entire lives learning how to play music and write songs, and they don't really know how the music business works.

Moby

Some people are the greatest people on Earth with good hearts and will get in the studio and make the most negative music in the world for the sake of success. That's what the music business does to you. That's what capitalism does to you.

Lupe Fiasco

That folk music led to learning to play, and making things up led to what turns out to be the most lucrative part of the music business - writing, because you get paid every time that song gets played.

Jackson Browne

If you had ever heard my album you would know that I could never consider the music business!

Dwayne Hickman

When I left Genesis, I just wanted to be out of the music business. I felt like I was just in the machinery. We knew what we were going to be doing in 18 months or two years ahead. I just did not enjoy that.

Peter Gabriel

As for the music business itself, the key things have not changed that much. It operates like any business and money still keeps things moving.

Tom Jones

I don't know if it's my music, my lyrics, my sound, and knowing the music business the way I do-all I can say is, my career has lasted way longer than I expected.

Barry White

Things can turn ugly so quickly in the music business, especially if you have an unexpected success.

Dean Wareham

Most people involved in the music business, and it's probably not just the music business... aren't necessarily people that I like.

Buzz Osborne

I'm not really interested in participating in mainstream culture. Participating in the mainstream music business is, to me, like getting involved in a racket. There's no way you can get involved in a racket and not someway be filthied by it.

Steve Albini

I don't live in as much fear as I used to. I'm not afraid of the music business. Life is too damn short. I know what's important, and the tasks are very clear.

Kathy Mattea

There are few words in the music business or in art that I'll say people or some writers are overgenerous with words like 'legend' or 'genius', 'he's a pioneer' and all of that.

Stanley Clarke

I've always just adored music. It's my first love, really. I admire and respect people in the music business. You really have to work hard and diligently. Sometimes actors can be lazy and get away with it, but you can't do that if you're a musician.

Blythe Danner

Nowadays, with the state of the music business, for any artist, whether you're up-and-coming or you've been in it for awhile, you have to explore different revenues and different ways of expressing yourself.

Mary J. Blige

I've been around the music business for a long time now, and I've had a lot of chances to do movies. But I didn't really want to do any until I found stuff that started to hit me in the right place.

Tim McGraw

There just is exponentially more money in the movie business than in the music business. As a result there are more people involved in the creative process.

Adam Duritz

Music and the music business are two different things.

Erykah Badu

Artists and the traditional record company model are at odds. The music business has notoriously taken from the artist. That shouldn't be the narrative.

Steve Stoute
