My life revolves around music and always will. I need to be a part of music and not an observer.

When I have downtime, music is a big part of my life. Not so much singing, but I play the guitar.

I'm very proud of it. 'Hunchback' contains some of my favorite music I've ever written in my life.

I lost 100 pounds and embraced theater and music as what I was going to make for the rest of my life.

I just want to say, creating music with Childish Gambino has been one of the greatest joys of my life.

I was inspired to create 'My Life' so I could finally share a personal part of my life beyond my music.

I'm very conscious of the fact that I devoted my life to recording music, recordings and writing songs.

I'm working on my life story. I'm not decided if it's going to be a musical or a movie with music in it.

I don't need to sell tons of records, but I want longevity. I want to make music for the rest of my life.

I draw inspiration from my life, and, honestly, a lot of my religious beliefs have stemmed into my music.

I've had a lot of big impacts before the music as far as deaths and tragedies and experiences in my life.

I wanted to play in a band, and I wanted to do music for a living, and that's what I dedicated my life to.

I had aunts who played piano and sang and also were entertainers, so music was very much a part of my life.

I listened to Country music a little bit, but it didn't enter my life until I started listening to Eric Church.

I don't think I was ever meant to be tied down to one band for the rest of my life, playing one style of music.

And (cue music swell) motherhood turned out to be the most meaningful thing I've ever done with my life. Really.

I gave my life for Styx and I'm really very proud of it and I didn't want to perform that music and screw it up.

Music is my life, professionally, for nearly 60 years. To be recognized by the academy is still the highest honor.

Music was always part of my life - my mother says I came out singing. I wanted to be Gene Kelly - or Judy Garland.

I was very confused with where my life was heading, but I knew that whatever I did, music was going to be involved.

My life is my music, so how can I stop? I put 100 percent into my career. I keep this flow going, and that's important.

My purpose is to make exciting music, and I feel like I'll be doing that for the rest of my life, so there's no pressure.

Music left my life for a while, to be honest. It wasn't that I didn't like it, but you know, I'm not really a solo player.

I've been playing music since I was four, so it's part of my life. It's all I know. It's just a part of my everyday living.

I had gone to Oxford to read music. I had done music all my life, but when I got to college I didn't want to do it anymore.

I encourage the study of music. And the immersion. 'Cause my life has been so enriched by being involved in music as I have.

I'm trying to just keep pushing on the things I've been wanting to do in my life and in music. And think of new things to do!

Music is a huge part of my life, I enjoy every genre of music from jazz to country, and I even get down with a bit of hip hop.

Coming from Puerto Rico and having that be my musical universe for the majority of my life no doubt strongly impacts my music.

Music is so huge to soccer, to my life, to working out. I usually have headphones when I'm cleaning the house or making dinner.

Music is a big part of my life. I listen to different genres, and I choose the music that will inspire the next part of my story.

Music is definitely something that I'd like to pursue. It's probably, I mean, the acting and music are the two biggest things in my life.

The ultimate part that I want to play in my life is Jimi Hendrix, so I guess I'm drawn to music even though I can't sing or dance very well.

Standing at a Christian music festival in Asbury, Ky., in the spring of 1978, I gave my life to Jesus Christ, and that's changed everything.

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 was in a competing company and have been dancing since I was four - ballet, tap, jazz, hip hop - so it's a huge part of my life and my music.

I must have been about 13 when I first heard Linkin Park and, to be honest, music had never played that much of a part in my life to that point.

If I were not a physicist, I would probably be a musician. I often think in music. I live my daydreams in music. I see my life in terms of music.

Classical music only really came into my life in 1969. I wish I had heard classical music and church music when I was a teenager or even as a child.

Music's always been a big part of my life, but it kind of all happened in one big ball of storytelling rather than splitting acting and singing apart.

I think what I'm going to do is get more balance in my life to still be able to go out and play the hard rock 'n' roll and do what I like to do in music.

I feel like, as a girl, I would have reacted or maybe been more depressed about some of the things that would have happened in my life if I didn't have music.

Pharrell loves music. When I'm with him, it's like I'm working with someone that I've known all my life, and we're both there to make the sickest track we can.

I ended up becoming so self-conscious that my songs stopped being about my life and started being about what people thought of my music. And that was really bad.

I get my inspiration for my songs and the lyrics from experiences in my life, but I'm also very inspired by the Beatles and Cyndi Lauper, as I really like their music.

I'm there to make a kind of theatrical music that is desperately missing in my life. And if other people don't like it, I'm very unhappy, but I can't do anything about that.

I felt like that was my calling. I just didn't know how I was going to get my voice out of Edmonton, but I definitely knew that music was what I was going to do with my life.

I went into college undeclared. I had no idea what I wanted to do, but I knew that music was obviously this central big important thing in my life that I was gonna keep doing.

Painting is just a hobby. I really don't think of it much more than that. But writing music and writing words... my life would feel as if it had a big hole if I took those away.

My style has a lot to do with where I've been brought up. I've lived half my life in Puerto Rico and the other half in Florida, so I listen to music in English as well as Spanish.
