Famous quotes by Elvis Costello:

"The songs will tell a story that I have imagined existing between the lines of Andersen's biography and some of his most famous tales, ... They speak of a misfit's love for an unattainable woman and a struggle between a huckster and someone who composes music in secret."

"Seems to me, that the worlds are moving closer together rather than one invading the other. I believe that music is connected by human passions and curiosities rather than by marketing strategies."

"[Commercial radio] is owned by one or two corporations now, and they're not in the music business. They're in the advertising business, ... So let's not kid ourselves. If you want to hear music, go buy a guitar."

"The words that are being spoken are serious, whether you take them at face value or listen to them at all, ... I'm not a preacher, I'm a singer. I can sing about serious things, but I don't think I have to put on a pious face to do it."

"It would be a surprise if people thought I would be playing a lot of rock 'n' roll."

"We have to speak up now,"

"I just hope we keep in our minds that an effort like this can never be too expensive."

"There's no such thing as an original sin."

"I used to be disgusted; now I try to be amused."

"Writing about music is like dancing about architecture - it's a really stupid thing to want to do"

"I find humming is very useful."

"Obviously the people that I admired, like the Beatles, were really into rock'n'roll, but it was already a little past rock'n'roll when I started listening and making my own choices about music."

"I found with this record I had to really be strong-willed, because in the past I've tended to tinker and add a thing or take a thing away, and nearly always been wrong."

"I've been lucky to listen to lots of different types of music."

"And obviously, when I started out, I had a little bit more curiosity than some, and went seeking out the original artists, or in some cases searching up country music."

"Very similar experience happened last year when we released this album, North. It was on Deutsche Grammophon, it was very, very honest. It was the most honest record I've ever written."

"And over the last ten years, after my work with the Brodsky Quartet, I had the opportunity to write arrangements for chamber group, chamber orchestra, jazz orchestra, symphony orchestra even."

"Well, T Bone's had a remarkable career as a producer since the time that we first worked together. He was dividing his time between recording and producing when we first met, and touring. We toured together and we were great friends."

"My ultimate vocation in life is to be an irritant."

"Well, I've had a lot of different experiences in music over the years. And not everything you do can satisfy everybody's idealised version of you."
