Singer Songwriters From England

"I’m not a religious person but I find something bigger than myself and something inspiriting in nature. I see connections – the same patterns that are on a microscopic scale are on a macroscopic scale, and the way the world has organized itself into these super-efficient and beautiful patterns. I love reading science books about physics and nature and learning amazing little details about the natural world. My first instinct as an artist is to be representational, but if I abstract my work, it pulls the viewer to spend a little more time with it.”"

"Leaders are sort of looking to move on,” she said. “There's been some great things that have happened – flexibility and remote work and more conversations around mental health in the workplace, destigmatizing burnout … huge investments made in mental health and wellbeing, but we're still feeling like they're not being actualized at work.”"

"“We were filling this void that maybe people didn’t even know was there. We’ve grown, but at our core are the studios and the space for artists to work and connect.” We discuss how the organization has changed from simply being about “art for artists" to sharing their vision with the community, to reaching outside of Savannah through an international artist residency and showing contemporary work from artists throughout the southeast."

"“I think it was always assumed that you graduate SCAD and move to L.A. or New York or another big city both for work and for the opportunity for community.,"

"“That should not be a badge of honor. We need to define what ‘above and beyond’ looks like,” Moss said. “If above and beyond is you working 70 hours a week, and that's what I expect, then let's be explicit about that.”"

"“Heart-forward means a few things,” she says. “I can be a caring person and really support your team and your people without being a pushover. It also means that I always want to leave people better than when I found them.”"

"We’re not looking to the edges, where there's really special things that are superpowers of people who are neurodivergent – there's the coolest superpowers, and we're just not taking advantage of that in a way that's going to make us better.”"

"Ever since the days of old the Navy's ruled the waves. For years they've told the world that Britain's never shall be slaves. The Navy still remembers and you'll often hear them say What Nelson told Napoleon upon Trafalgar day:"It serves you right, you shouldn't have joined, it jolly well serves you right. It serves you right, you shouldn't have joined, you might have been sitting tight You might have been in Civvy Street instead of in the fight But it serves you right, you shouldn't have joined, it jolly well serves you right""

"And I can feel a new tomorrow coming on And I don't know why I have to make a song Everybody talks about a new world in the morning New world in the morning takes so long."

"I met a man who had a dream He had since he was twenty I met that man when he was eighty-one He said: "Too many folks just stand And wait until the morning Don't they know, tomorrow never comes" And he would feel a new tomorrow coming on And when he'd smile his eyes are twinkled up in thought Everybody talks about a new world in the morning New world in the morning never comes."

"I've heard there's a wicked war a-blazing And the taste of war I know so very well Even now I see the foreign flag a-raising Their guns on fire as we sail into hell I have no fear of death, it brings no sorrow But how bitter will be this last farewell For you are beautiful, I have loved you dearly More dearly than the spoken word can tell."

"I’m good at pathos. I write about romantic despair a lot. That’s my thing, but with a positive spin"

"Not many bands have had the same longevity; there is life in the old girl yet. It’s about finding new inspiration and enjoyment for each other. As long as we have that we’ll keep going"

"The best musician anyone could have in their band and the best friend anyone could have in their life"

"We all sensed that perhaps Lindsey would leave first. I mean, the very thought of one band member leaving was catastrophic to us, because we all felt that each one of us was irreplaceable"

"I think there’s always a certain amount of romance on our records, I mean, you know, that’s ‘cause I’m writing some of the songs, I always write about romance"

"To be honest. That came from my parents. I can’t imagine better advice coming from one’s parents. I try to stick by that rule and to be as good a person as I can"

"Maybe people want to see us because they think it’s the last chance. We’re a young band at heart; you’d never think we are the age we are. We’re never static. It’s going to be fantastic"

"I never did believe in miracles, But I've a feeling it's time to try. I never did believe in the ways of magic, But I'm beginning to wonder why."

"Can you hear me calling Out your name? You know that I'm falling And I don't know what to say I'll speak a little louder I'll even shout You know that I'm proud And I can't get the words out Oh, I I want to be with you everywhere."

"If you wake up and don't want to smile, If it takes just a little while, Open your eyes and look at the day. You'll see things in a different way.Don't stop, thinking about tomorrow, Don't stop, it'll soon be here. It'll be, better than before. Yesterday's gone, yesterday's gone."

"I think that actually that releases the emotional tension to be honest with you. I always think that, no matter what’s gone on prior to the, you know, treading the boards at night, I think we all kind of leave that behind when we’re on stage and you tend to even put more feeling into the songs I think"

"That’s the- another thing is, you know, the pressure is on you when you’re doing a solo record, when you come together with, you know, four tried and trusted other musicians you feel like you’ve got a very strong shoulder to lean on that’s not about to collapse under you, you know"

"The War on Ukraine is an unimaginable tragedy... As a human, and as an artist, I felt compelled to respond in the most significant way I could. ... I had always said, that the only time I would ever consider singing ‘IMAGINE' would be if it was the ‘End of the World’ But also because his lyrics reflect our collective desire for peace worldwide. Because within this song, we’re transported to a space, where love and togetherness become our reality, if but for a moment in time… The song reflects the light at the end of the tunnel, that we are all hoping for... As a result of the ongoing murderous violence, millions of innocent families, have been forced to leave the comfort of their homes, to seek asylum elsewhere. I’m calling on world leaders and everyone who believes in the sentiment of IMAGINE, to stand up for refugees everywhere! Please advocate and donate from the heart. #StandUpForUkraine"

"Motörhead is nothing if not democratic, but I don't think it's fair to be waving your dick around when people are minding their own business and might not want to see it."

"As the decades passed, everyone knew Lemmy from Motorhead wouldn’t really live forever. It was inevitable that the legendary rocker’s hedonistic lifestyle would catch up with him. It seemed more and more imminent as his health problem affected the touring schedule of the band especially in the last few years of his life. However, we had all hoped he would at least outlive Keith Richards. Though many might argue it was sad to see the mighty Lemmy in such a frail state towards the end of his life, the contrary can also be said. How amazing was it that a man in his late 60s lived to his last months literally partying, meeting women all over the world, gambling and playing rock music to tons of fans? Lemmy lived his life as his own, to his last days, and never regretted a thing. He was lucky in the sense that most people would have dropped dead 20 years before him with the amount of meth cigarettes and Jack Daniels he consumed. But the point was that Lemmy was a bad motherfucker till the end. He was one of rock’s most respected party animals and talented bass players. Motorhead will without a doubt continue to inspire generations of rockers to come, ensuring that Lemmy’s musical legacy will never die."

"(when asked if he has any regrets) None. Life's too short."

"You can't have everything, can you? Where would you put it?"

"In your twenties, you think you are immortal. In your thirties, you hope you are immortal. In your forties, you just pray it doesn’t hurt too much, and by the time you reach my age, you become convinced that, well, it could be just around the corner."

"You can’t keep guys faithful. If people want to get married and then run around, I think that’s dishonest. If you’re going to get married, get fucking married and that’s it. I never saw a chick that could stop me looking at all the others, so I didn’t."

"If you can give the kids a good time then that’s all it’s for. Forget art and all that – that’s bullshit. If you can send that shiver down a kid’s back then that’s what it’s all about. All else is bullshit."

"Apparently people don't like the truth, but I do like it; I like it because it upsets a lot of people."

"We wanna be like Status Quo and go on forever. Chuck Berry never changed. Little Richard never changed. I’d rather be like that and stick to a formula we’re happy with."

"This is my song for you. Thoughts of winter, dreams of sunshine. Nothing that I can do changes how I feel in my mind. This is my song for you. Times I hope you will remember. Things that were meant for two, here in my heart, here in my song for you."

"Lady of my life, won't you comfort me tonight, when the troubles of the world are on my shoulders? Lady, make it right, please don't fuss or fight, I need some peace now I'm a little older. Lady, lady, lady, lady of my life, lady, lady, lady, lady of my life, stay with me tonight."

"You're on your own, back on the street, out in the cold you feel the heat. One way ticket to nowhere at your feet. Take what you need, a word to the wise: only the weak need alibis. Stakes are too high, zero again, no second chances at the end. Run, tell me where you're gonna run to? Run, oh, oh, oh where you gonna run to? Where you gonna run?"

"Misty silence of the early morning. All around another day is dawning. Goodbyes ain't easy, so no-one sees me when I go. Only time is gonna last forever. Just remember what we had together. I must be leavin' and I can't even let it show. I am on my way, Remember Yesterday."

"Pull the damn thing down, we're gonna build a highway, and either side we'll beautify, with concrete reaching to the sky. Pull the damn thing down. Soon you won't remember, as all the people turn their backs on cobbled stones and chimney stacks. Pull the damn thing down!"

"Plain Jane, chasing rainbows, building castles in the sky. Plain Jane, chasing rainbows, make the end before you die. Not for you a poor man's son, your dreams of fortune have begun, and once you're off the ground you have to fly."

"Days may come and days may go. Funny how the children grow so fast. Nothing can last. Always try, and try we will. Nothing ever standing still for long. Is it all wrong? Time: tell me where you've flown. Wind, where have you blown? Taking us along, and changing as you go everything we know, like the rivers flow. What have we to show? Ready to spread your wings and fly away."

"You can have the world if the world is what you need. Just take me round in circles, I'll follow where you lead. Go anywhere, if it's where you wanna go. It used to be for something, but lately I don't know. "Take me far away", all the people say. You're the price I pay. Blame me. Leave you far behind. Search until I find. I could lose my mind. Shame me. Tame me."

"Sun is shinin' in the sky There ain't a cloud in sight It's stopped rainin', everybody's in the play and don't you know it's a beautiful new day. Hey hey hey! Runnin' down the avenue, see how the sun shines brightly in the city, on the streets where once was pity Mr. Blue Sky is living here today, hey hey hey. Mr. Blue Sky, please tell us why you had to hide away for so long (so long) Where did we go wrong?"

"Not for me all the things you must do I am glad now that I can see through. They say that I'm crazy, I'm out of my mind, searching for something I'll never find. Don't call me a loser, call me a rebel. No one said I must run in this race. Always right, putting me in my place. I know it's not easy: believe in yourself, you won't find the answer in somebody else. Don't call me a loser, Call me a rebel. Call me a rebel."

"Take a look at the blind man wishing every day he could see. He lives his life in darkness. Be grateful, you and me. Take a look at yourself now, standing with your back to the wall. Pride will get you nowhere fast, we're waiting for the fall."

"People always rushing round, makin' time to fuss and to worry. Get your feet back on the ground, it's no good to live in a hurry. Take it easy on your mind, no one wants to get behind. Think about it, you will find time is on your side, slow down. (Can't slow down)"

"Could a feeling be so wrong? Why I left you for so long. Home. Though I miss you more each day there was nothing you could say, I had to go my way: show them I was older now and not some toy that they could play with. Tell me how everything I need today is? Lost, only traces on faces that won't remember me now. Yes I'm going back there somehow. Lost where my memory waits for me. Home is where I belong"

"Highfly, touch the sky, Whatcha gonna do now the well's dry? Good time, feeling fine. Whatcha gonna do now there's no wine?"

"Just another dead end kid. Can't believe the things I did. Lots of pretty ladies by my side. Take it all for Number One. Wasted days with no harm done. Always leave tomorrow open wide. You took me by surprise, now my empty eyes had to realise that my life wasn't the way I want to be. No, I'll never change my mind, couldn't be unkind, love is hard to find, and I know by now I should say more, but I have never been in love before."

"One more day and he'll be dreamin'. Let the night time roll away. He'll do great things tomorrow (so much to do today). Another mountain he'll be climbin' to a valley down below. There's sunshine all around him where the peaceful waters flow."

"There's once in your life if you're lucky enough to find it, that special love, deep inside your soul, opening your eyes to a bright new day, leaving loneliness behind you. No words could ever say, oh darling, how precious you are to me. Don't you see? Oh baby, now that I found you, girl, nothing's gonna take you away, 'cause, darling, I will love you for ever and ever."
