Laugh, love, dream, strive, smile, feel, joy, look, try, fail, read, walk, search, share, help, work, fun, learn, retry, sweat, cry, rest, wait, fear, hope, trust, pride. . . when we have lived all of these, our photography might stop being a record of what our camera sees and become an expression of what we as photographers feel.
By presenting a faithful and honest record of my experience as a mother, I hope to show both my readers and my children how truth can redeem even what you fear might be the gravest of sins.
People will download the music for free and they'll pay for it if they want to give you a compliment. They don't have to pay for it. And the only way the artist can make money was by touring 'cause the record label didn't take that money. Unfortunately now, cause the record company's not making money from the downloads, now they want to take money away from everything.
If you want a candidate to defend life and marriage and religious liberty and the Second Amendment and to appoint strong constitutionalists to the court, I'm the only candidate with that record. That's why conservatives are uniting behind our campaign. And if they want to continue with the attacks, that's their prerogative.
I suppose what you're doing as a painter is making a record of your trip through life. I can't think of any job that is quite as satisfactory as doing a painting.
For me, it's good to have those dissimilar modes of songwriting sit side-by-side on a record, because they yield such different results.
Every record we do there are always two camps. There's the camp that's like, "I love it. It sounds different than the last one. " There are the people that are like, "I want it to sound like the last one. " You can't please everybody all the time, but I think for the most part we tend to maintain a healthy level of self-reference to kind of make sure we continue to push things forward.
When someone walks into my room and goes 'wow' at my record collection, at that moment I could actually hate music and just want to go sit in the garden.
What makes that record special is something that is gone from music today - it's called a rhythm section.
I record to my heart's content whatever I feel like.
We should always measure a government's environmental rhetoric against its environmental record
I always use the Jeff Beck model. Jeff Beck is just a genius, and he keeps getting better. . . If there's anybody in your field you want to aspire to be like, it is a guy who does what he wants to do. Every record at least he comes out with one thing that makes everybodys' jaw drop. . . I would hope that Jimi Hendrix would have done that, although, man, the odds are against him because he did so much in such a short amount of time.
I had never made a record before, so I didn't know anything about it. I don't know anything about knobs, frequencies, tones.
The worthiness of any cause is not measured by its clean record, but by its readiness to see the blots when they are pointed out, and to change its mind.
I feel the same way about every album. I think it's better than the one before. I have a strong feeling that you can't put out a record until you hate the last one you did because you have to make it better.
I do a lot of conferences, and I did a campaign with the Cerebral Palsy Foundation called "Just Say Hi. " They get celebrities to record little messages about how you start a conversation with someone who has a disability, which is to "Just say hi. "
I see someone play, or I listen to a record, and I think, "How did they make that sound?' It's not emulation; it's more building a vocabulary that can be called up at a moment's notice.
When your so focused on what people say, how can your really be focused on the music? If you're concerned with what someone says, you aren't working on a real record. You're working on something that's just for now, to please people this very second. . . because you don't believe in yourself.
I'm not so much in the future as always in the present. The future always takes care of itself. What I do now with my video camera, it can only record what is happening now. I am celebrating reality and the essence of the moment. And that's the greatest challenge that I have.
Making the record was tons of fun, the most fun I've ever had.
