David Archuleta Quotes

Everyone just wants to feel good, and I don't think that all music is designed to make you feel good.

I think that music is still a mystery to most people. It kind of goes through most people without a specific thought. They feel the music, which is what's supposed to happen. They're not supposed to be curious about who wrote the music; they're supposed to feel what the show is trying to get them to feel. So if I help get that feeling across, that's good enough for me.

I just love human emotion and faces.

Human curation allows you to have the emotion and feel music, because it is a very emotional thing. It makes you feel happy; it helps you when you are feeling sad, gets you pumped up, calms you down.

Nature endows us with the feeling that moves us in all our musical experiences; we might call her gift instinct.

Feeling is not selective, I keep telling you that. You can’t feel pain, you aren’t gonna feel anything else, either.

The difference between a good song and a great song is a good song is one that you know, you'll put on in your car or you'll dance to it. But I think a great song you'll cry to it, or you get chills. I think a great song says how you feel better than you could.

One of the findings that really interests me is that, although we think we ACT because of the way we FEEL, we often FEEL because of the way we ACT. So an almost uncanny way to change your feelings is to act the way you WISH you felt.

Music commands how we feel, dictates what we experience in our feelings.

You listen to a piece of music and it will remind you of something - it might make you happy, it might make you sad, but it is very emotive. And I think that Duran Duran have always understood that.

Some of us get a feeling when we hear music and we feel music, and you want to figure out how to continue to feel that.

Birth is such an emotional thing.

Sometimes emotions are more important than rationality.

It's difficult to explain exactly how I react to music, but if it makes me feel anything at all, then I'll have some kind of emotional relationship to it. That's what defines good music to me - if it makes me truly feel something.

I love how music can create an audiovisual experience. To me, some of the best music is the music that does that.

When you hear a romantic song, the feeling is incomparable.

Even if a song has shallow lyrics, there's something that you feel, regardless of what their lyrics are.

Every thought, feeling, and emotion creates a molecule known as a neuropeptide. Neuropeptides travel throughout your body and hook onto receptor sites of cells and neurons. Your brain takes in the information, converts it into chemicals, and lets your whole body know if there's trouble in the world or cause for celebration. Your body is directly influenced as these molecules course through the bloodstream, delivering the energetic effect of whatever your brain is thinking and feeling.

Receiving involves feeling the way you feel once your desire has manifested.

Don’t panic, I thought. But already my breathing was faster, shallower. “You mean you can feel happy or sad or—” “Desire.” A barely-there smile.

Feeling good and feeling bad are not necessarily opposites. Both at least involve feelings. Any feeling is a reminder of life. The worst 'feeling' evidently is non-feeling.

I'm not planning what I listen to, except when I think the music can guide me to some emotional place I want to be reminded of.

At the very instant that you think, "I am happy," a chemical messenger translates your emotion, which has no solid existence whatever in the material world, into a bit of matter so perfectly attuned to your desire that literally every cell in your body learns of your happiness and joins in.

...concepts are related to the senses; and, when feeling takes place, wisdom is shut out.

But I don't want to have to stop feeling. I really think I'd rather die than stop feeling.
