Every drummer that had a name, had a name because of his individual playing. He didn't sound like anybody else, So everybody that I ever listened to, in some form, influenced my taste.
Buddy Rich

I enjoy the videos with the sound off, where you can look at the belly buttons and everything. Really some pretty girls, but I don't know about the music.
Merle Haggard

The blues - the sound of a sinner on revival day.
William Christopher Handy

As soon as I hear a sound, it always suggests a mood to me.
Brian Eno

For me it's always contingent on getting a sound-the sound always suggests what kind of melody it should be. So it's always sound first and then the line afterwards.
Brian Eno

I think the fans really wanna hear the songs the way they sound on the record.
Ace Frehley

In the late '70s I started to search for the perfect sound - whatever that might be, before that I was mainly interested in drugs, insanity and the rock'n'roll lifestyle.
Lou Reed

He whom the gods love dies young, while he is in health, has his senses and his judgments sound.
Titus Maccius Plautus

You'll find that empty vessels make the most sound.
Johnny Rotten

I don't want to make that sound like I'm preaching from a mountain top when I say you have to give your family everything, because I know it's hard for people. I'm lucky to be in a position where you can establish those ground rules and make it that way.
Tim McGraw

As far as I'm concerned, "whom" is a word that was invented to make everyone sound like a butler.
Calvin Trillin

I'm always making Butcher Holler sound like the most backward part of the United States-and I think maybe it is.
Loretta Lynn

It was still quiet in the house, and not a sound was heard from outside, either. Were it not for this silence, my reverie would probably have been disrupted by reminders of daily duties, of getting up and going to school.
Herman Hesse

For me, however, that beloved, glowing little word happiness has become associated with everything I have felt since childhood upon hearing the sound of the word itself.
Herman Hesse

My songs are my kids. Some of them stay with me, some others I have to send out, out to the war. It might sound stupid and it might even sound naive, but that's just the way it is.
Thom Yorke

Shows have been sold out. It's overwhelming, you know. I had no idea what to expect with this new sound and everything and just to see so many people just come out and embrace it, it's overwhelming.
Vanilla Ice

Some actors get fired up by the sound of the audience. I just want to retreat.
Francesca Annis

I don't understand why some people will only accept a guitar if it has an instantly recognizable guitar sound. Finding ways to use the same guitar people have been using for 50 years to make sounds that no one has heard before is truly what gets me off.
Jeff Beck

The pull between sound and syntax creates a kind of musical tension in the language that interests me.
Marilyn Hacker

We are busy planning the launch of the channel. I am busy planning all kinds of events that go on the channel without me. I have started producing a sound for the channel.
Howard Stern
