I see songs not as a commodity used up when the album goes off the charts, which is often the case with pop songs. I see them as a body of work. Life should be breathed into them.
Sting

The Beginning of Survival is my best album. I am very proud of it, and I am surprised at it, too. I thought some of Travelogue was a little heavy, but I don't think this is heavy.
Joni Mitchell

I don't really think about what the subject of my next album will be. I just know that I'm going to make another album.
Lou Reed

When I record an album I'm trying to get as close as possible to that perfect moment.
Lou Reed

I write most of my own lyrics for my album and I am helping to produce some of the songs as well.
Lindsay Lohan

Five years ago I figured we were at the top of our game and that was the best it was going to get, but with every album it seems to keep on building on itself.
Tim McGraw

You don't try to get influenced by everything that's going on with all the other music around you. You don't listen to the radio - I mean, I don't. When I get ready to do an album, I don't listen to anybody else; I don't wanna be influenced.
Tim McGraw

It was the Control album that was really about what I wanted to do.
Janet Jackson

Yeah, the next Wu album should be out by late '95.
Method Man

We toyed with the idea of making it a double album, but I think that would only have confused everybody even more, so we decided to stick with the songs we picked.
Thom Yorke

I just kept it real and had the freedom to do what I want. It's not designed for any age group. It's not made for radio. There are no edits. The whole album contains explicit lyrics but that's because you need it.
Vanilla Ice

I use the music to vent, and a lot of the stuff that I am writing about or was writing about contained a lot of anger and anxiety, stress and depression, so that's how the album came out so dark.
Vanilla Ice

I rate each album as better than the last one. That's how I see it.
Paul Simon

I've always said I can't tell sometimes that people even have an album out until I see them nominated for a Grammy. I think country gets dumped on across the board by the Grammys.
Toby Keith

It feels great to have a #1 album.
Billy Joel

It's a miracle was the last track recorded for the album, we based it on the rhythm from the middle of 'Late Home Tonight, where there's Graham Broad playing lots and lots of drums with me shouting in the background, pretending to be a mad Arab leader.
Roger Waters

We were contracted to make a soundtrack album but there really wasn't enough new material in the movie to make a new record that I thought was interesting.
Roger Waters

My first album is playful.
Mary J. Blige

Inside was the second LP album of a comedian's performance before an audience.
Shelley Berman

If I like it, it's gonna be on my album. You can't please everyone.
Natasha Hamilton
