I'd say the key thing is to remain true to what originally got you into music. When I wrote 'Hallelujah,' it ignited me to do music because of the love and joy that I got from writing that song. Down the road, you get all of these opinions from people; just remember what got you started in the first place.
All my life, I've really enjoyed music: making music, playing it, and recording it. It's such a relief and a joy to do what I do for a living.
I have to say, I'm sort of always obsessed with Norah Jones. I just love her voice, but I don't really have an album - I have a playlist.
If you're in music, you're in music, and if you're in music you just want to keep making records and playing. That's what it's about, isn't it? At least, that's what I always thought it was about, anyway.
I always give a lot of credit to Ronnie Dunn for making me fall in love with country music.
Playing guitar was a calling, but I never realized that it was going to be a career. It was just something I did out of love.
I've always had a passion for music - it's a real part of me.
As a very small girl, I listened to Charlie Parker and loved him and Max Roach and people like that.
I love pop music, I love country music.
R&B is my home. It's who I am. It's who I've been. It's the first genre I fell in love with. It's the reason why I've been able to do other genres of music.
I was in punk rock bands, heavy metal bands, world music bands, jazz groups, any type of music that would take me. I just love music.
I'm pretty into music. Anything with music I love... I'm really big on lyrical content plus a good beat.
I think the future looks great for music, musicians, bass players, and all we love about music.
Music is all I know.
I enjoy recording and performing, but it's the songwriting that I love most.
I always had a fascination with music.
Love A$AP Rocky. I love his music, and I love his style.
I love music, whoever makes it. Whoever makes great music in the entire world I am their fan because I love music so much. I am each and everybody's fan who is putting their music out there.
I've just always loved singing, and I come from a family that loves singing around the kitchen table.
The band will always be our number one, and I don't see it ever stopping. We love playing, so why would we want to stop?
My family wasn't in the music business, but they loved music.
I love being a member of KISS.
At the end of the day, I'm a fan of great stories and great songs.
I love all types of music. I love top 40 dance pop, hip-hop, I don't even know what they call it now. I'm a huge fan of all that.
I got involved with classical music when I was in high school and it's followed me throughout my entire life and probably had a profound effect on my life.
