Gordon Waller A lot of people don't listen to the lyrics, really. Lenny Kravitz A lot of the time there is a lot of melancholy in the lyrics. Will Champion A lot of Woody Guthrie's songs were taken from other songs. He would rework the melody and lyrics, and all of a sudden it was a Woody Guthrie song. John Mellencamp Adam does most of the work when it comes to videos and he basically does the same as I do with the lyrics. The videos are his visual interpretations of our music. Maynard James Keenan After 9/11, we realized that all these silly culture wars, and arguing about rock lyrics... who cares? You know, we, for some reason, remembered what our real problems are. Frank Rich After that, I specifically started writing lyrics. I would like sweat and think and get it all together. Jim Capaldi And also, I think Japan places great value on the lyrics. Utada Hikaru And it was then that I realized wow, I'm able to write lyrics and sing and stuff like that. Utada Hikaru Blake has always been a favorite, the lyrics, not so much the prophetic books, but I suppose Yeats influenced me more as a young poet, and the American, Robert Frost. Anne Stevenson Bob Dylan has a way with words that simply blows me away. When he forgets his lyrics he just makes up new ones on the spot, that is what I called talented! Gavin Rossdale But I always loved songs with great lyrics. Johnny Rivers But then you have to write a song, so at that point, I picked up the reins and started to write lyrics. Jim Capaldi But, Eminem... No, I've loved rap for a long time, especially when it got out of its first period and became this gangsta rap, ya know this heavy rap thing? That's when I started to fall in love with it. I loved the lyrics. I loved the beat. Alan Vega Chelsea Morning is a great Joni Mitchell song and I guess I'm partial to her lyrics because they show me a slightly different perspective on life. Neil Diamond Cynthia's lyrics always expressed the feelings people felt but they couldn't express themselves. Barry Mann For me, naming bands was the forerunner to really writing lyrics, because I work off titles. Jim Capaldi For several centuries what has passed for song in literary circles was any text that looked like the lyrics for a commonplace melodic setting. David Antin For the record, I am not an admitted homosexual, nor am I a homosexual, though I do know the lyrics to every show tune ever written, which might perhaps account for the confusion. John Podhoretz For the version of this CD released in Japan, a translation of the English lyrics is included, but there are lots of places where meanings are lost in the process of translation. Utada Hikaru |
