He [Johnny Cash] always wanted to use his music to lift other people up, to say no matter how much trouble, there's hope. That was always his message in his songs. That's why he and [Bob] Dylan bonded so much, because they were both trying to do something meaningful. ~ Robert Hilburn
Meaningful Song quotes by Robert Hilburn
I have a song deep in my heart, And only I can hear it. If I close my eyes and sit very still ... It is so easy to listen to my song. When my eyes are open and I am so Busy and moving and busy, If I take time and listen very hard, I can still hear my Heartsong. It makes me feel happy. Happier than ever. Happier than everywhere And everything and everyone In the whole wide world. Happy like thinking about Going to Heaven when I die. My Heartsong sounds like this: I love you! I love you! How happy you can be! How happy you can make this whole World be. ~ Mattie Stepanek
Meaningful Song quotes by Mattie Stepanek
I don't feel I have to write deep and meaningful songs; they can be light and meaningless. It has to do with the place I am in my life, a really good place. ~ Neil Diamond
Meaningful Song quotes by Neil Diamond
When this song come on, I'm spending money ... Play something I can spend some money to. ~ Wiz Khalifa
Meaningful Song quotes by Wiz Khalifa
Well, you know, when you're putting together a show, you've got to be careful not to load it up with the new stuff. We have to play the songs that people want to hear, too. People may come thinking, "Oh, I've just got to hear this song." Or maybe they'll write me a letter saying a certain song is really meaningful to them, so we'll be sure to play those songs. ~ Margo Timmins
Meaningful Song quotes by Margo Timmins
If you're gonna sing meaningful songs, you have to be committed to living a life that backs that up. ~ Joan Baez
Meaningful Song quotes by Joan Baez
He'll be successful, finally, this coming Sunday, at the modest ceremony to be held in the living room. It's all so clear. Tyler will write a beautiful, meaningful song. Barrett will find a love that abides, and work that matters. And Liz. Liz will tire of boys, tire of her resolution to grow into a tough, colorful old woman who lives defiantly alone. ~ Michael Cunningham
Meaningful Song quotes by Michael Cunningham
The quality of a timeless song is that it's catchy, meaningful and relatable. ~ OMI
Meaningful Song quotes by OMI
It's great when you can write a meaningful song that touches people, but sometimes you just wanna have fun and sing a silly song that doesn't reflect on you as a person. ~ Carrie Underwood
Meaningful Song quotes by Carrie Underwood
With the backdrop of The Salvation Army's century and a half of service to the world's poor, these songs and reflections are born of meaningful engagement with a living Gospel ~ Sara Groves
Meaningful Song quotes by Sara Groves
I'd spent five hours that morning trying to write a song that was meaningful and good, and I finally gave up and lay down. Then, "Nowhere Man" came, words and music, the whole damn thing, as I lay down ... Song writing is about getting the demon out of me. It's like being possessed. You try to go to sleep, but the song won't let you. So you have to get up and make it into something, and then you're allowed sleep. ~ John Lennon
Meaningful Song quotes by John Lennon
Christmas may not bring a single thing; still, it gives me a song to sing. ~ Charles Dickens
Meaningful Song quotes by Charles Dickens
There are always meaningful songs for somebody. People are doing their courting, people are finding their wives, people are making babies, people are washing their dishes, people are getting through the day, with songs that we may find insignificant. But their significance is affirmed by others. There's always someone affirming the significance of a song by taking a woman into his arms or by getting through the night. That's what dignifies the song. Songs don't dignify human activity. Human activity dignifies the song. ~ Leonard Cohen
Meaningful Song quotes by Leonard Cohen
I feel like my songs are very relevant and very meaningful, but I literally have to get rid of the nostalgia for shows because I would just be mess on-stage otherwise. ~ Ellie Goulding
Meaningful Song quotes by Ellie Goulding
You have to look at every one of your songs and be able to identify with them in a meaningful way. You can hardly sing your songs unless you're in them. If you want to fake it, go ahead. Fake it if you want. But I'm not that kind of singer. ~ Bob Dylan
Meaningful Song quotes by Bob Dylan
It's a brilliant song! C'mon ... 'Every day is like survival. You're my lover, not my rival.' What could be more meaningful than that? (Jesse) ~ Sherrilyn Kenyon
Meaningful Song quotes by Sherrilyn Kenyon
I mean, Lady Gaga is trying to be a freak or whatever but that quality of being very meaningly and heartfelt, but also having a sense of humor about it, bands don't do that anymore. Lady Gaga's songs are cheesy. The Beatles weren't cheesy. That's the hardest thing with music: to not be cheesy, but also be meaningful. That's the goal, I think. ~ Mac DeMarco
Meaningful Song quotes by Mac DeMarco
You can write a song about a girl or you can write a song about walking down the shops, and it's fine. I just try and do something as meaningful as I can without trying to be a pretentious loser because it's genuinely just how I see things. ~ Matt Corby
Meaningful Song quotes by Matt Corby
I don't know if any genuine, meaningful change could ever result from a song. It's kind of like throwing peanuts at a gorilla. ~ Tom Waits
Meaningful Song quotes by Tom Waits
Simply being with other people who are also seekers and who are involved in the same quest you are is very meaningful. ~ Dan Wakefield
Meaningful Song quotes by Dan Wakefield
We were never a band that did 96 takes of the same thing. I had heard of groups that were into that kind of excess around that time. They'd work on the same track for three or four days and then work on it some more, but that's clearly not the way to record an album. If the track isn't happening and it creates some sort of psychological barrier, even after an hour or two, then you should stop and do something else. Go out: go to the pub, or a restaurant or something. Or play another song. ~ Jimmy Page
Meaningful Song quotes by Jimmy Page
To share is precious, pure and fair.
Don't play with something you should cherish for life. Don't you wanna care, ain't it lonely out there? ~ Marvin Gaye
Meaningful Song quotes by Marvin Gaye
There [are] times when I put out an album, and I don't hear my songs really on the radio a lot, and it's like, Dang, I ain't inside that world. But I'm still moving some people or touching some people. ~ Common
Meaningful Song quotes by Common
For us as writers, it's really important to have songs we believe in - even before sometimes we shoot a scene. If we have a song that's so perfectly designed for a scene on 'Rescue Me,' we'll play it on loud speakers during the shooting. It helps the cameraman and it helps the director, and it helps the actors know what the feel is. ~ Denis Leary
Meaningful Song quotes by Denis Leary
It's morning when I go to sleep
In the distant dawn a church bell rings
Another day is coming on
A baby's born, an old man dies
Somewhere young lovers kiss good-bye
I leave my soul and just move on
And wish that I was there to sing this song ~ Jon Bon Jovi
Meaningful Song quotes by Jon Bon Jovi
I surreptitiously attempt to practice his I'm Here And I'm Listening And I'm The Best Damn Boyfriend Ever expression on my own face. He does it so well. But it must be possible, right? It's not like he's that crazy-talented.

He's about to start talking, but then he stops and stares at me.

"What?" I say, trying not to let my face muscles shift too much. This is damn tricky.

"You look like you're about to start playing the world's saddest song on its tiniest little violin," Arthur informs me. "And then hug a kitten, and paint a rainbow, and watch Titanic whilst weeping profusely. ~ Hannah Johnson
Meaningful Song quotes by Hannah  Johnson
I don't much like opera, either. Especially Wagner. There's something about Wagner that's just too piss-German, too fucking Bavarian for a Prussian like me. I like my music to be every bit as vulgar as I am myself. I like a bit of innuendo and stocking-top when a woman's singing a song. ~ Philip Kerr
Meaningful Song quotes by Philip Kerr
THE MEETING"

"Scant rain had fallen and the summer sun
Had scorched with waves of heat the ripening corn,
That August nightfall, as I crossed the down
Work-weary, half in dream. Beside a fence
Skirting a penning's edge, an old man waited
Motionless in the mist, with downcast head
And clothing weather-worn. I asked his name
And why he lingered at so lonely a place.

"I was a shepherd here. Two hundred seasons
I roamed these windswept downlands with my flock.
No fences barred our progress and we'd travel
Wherever the bite grew deep. In summer drought
I'd climb from flower-banked combe to barrow'd hill-top
To find a missing straggler or set snares
By wood or turmon-patch. In gales of March
I'd crouch nightlong tending my suckling lambs.

"I was a ploughman, too. Year upon year
I trudged half-doubled, hands clenched to my shafts,
Guiding my turning furrow. Overhead,
Cloud-patterns built and faded, many a song
Of lark and pewit melodied my toil.
I durst not pause to heed them, rising at dawn
To groom and dress my team: by daylight's end
My boots hung heavy, clodded with chalk and flint.

"And then I was a carter. With my skill
I built the reeded dew-pond, sliced out hay
From the dense-matted rick. At harvest time,
My wain piled high with sheaves, I urged the horses
Back to the master's barn with shouts and curses
John Rawson
Meaningful Song quotes by John Rawson
A lot of the album is made of love songs I've written over the past three or four years that have lasted the test of time. It's probably the thing that connects the songs together other than the sound of my vocals. ~ Vance Joy
Meaningful Song quotes by Vance Joy
Music brings relief! Hymns change mood! Songs empower the downhearted. Sing songs always! When all things seem down, sing a good and an inspiring song! When you seem to be wasting your energy on toxic thoughts, invoke your spirit with an amazing song! Songs have power! Empower your life with good songs! ~ Ernest Agyemang Yeboah
Meaningful Song quotes by Ernest Agyemang Yeboah
I don't know this song. They haven't taught me it to us at school."
" When in doubt, just do what I do, Robs. Hum if you don't know the words ~ Bianca Marais
Meaningful Song quotes by Bianca Marais
In the garden of tabloid delight, there is always a clean towel and another song. ~ Lewis H. Lapham
Meaningful Song quotes by Lewis H. Lapham
The catchers delight in the moment so frozen but soon discover that the nightingale expires, its clear flutelike song diminishes to silence, the trapped moment grows withered and without life. ~ Alan Lightman
Meaningful Song quotes by Alan Lightman
IF YOU'RE CRAZY, I DON'T WANT TO BE SANE.
-Colin ~ K. Lars
Meaningful Song quotes by K. Lars
I am sailing on a ship bound for life.
a line in a song ~ Phil Wickham
Meaningful Song quotes by Phil Wickham
The orchestra's an amazing instrument, but I don't want to just arrange my songs for it. I think that might be kind of boring and a little bit overdramatic, perhaps. I'm still just having too much fun doing it my way, for the time being. ~ Andrew Bird
Meaningful Song quotes by Andrew Bird
I'm a little left of center, for sure, with Angels & Airwaves. But even when I get really weird, it's not that weird. It's not like some obscure Sonic Youth record or something. We don't take it quite that far. But what we do like are crescendos, and we do like when a song catches you off guard and it gives you the chills up and down your arms. ~ Tom DeLonge
Meaningful Song quotes by Tom DeLonge
Fire-lizard dance on wing
To the raucous song I sing.
Fire-lizrad wheel and turn,
Show me how the dragons learn. ~ Anne McCaffrey
Meaningful Song quotes by Anne McCaffrey
You are the song of every bird, you are the poet's every word, every artist's picture, every writer's play. ~ Dolly Parton
Meaningful Song quotes by Dolly Parton
How do you know, when you think blue - when you say blue - that you are talking about the same blue as anyone else?

You cannot get a grip on blue.

Blue is the sky, the sea, a god's eye, a devil's tail, a birth, a strangulation, a virgin's cloak, a monkey's ass. It's a butterfly, a bird, a spicy joke, the saddest song, the brightest day.

Blue is sly, slick, it slides into the room sideways, a slippery trickster.

This is a story about the color blue, and like blue, there's nothing true about it. Blue is beauty, not truth. 'True blue' is a ruse, a rhyme; it's there, then it's not. Blue is a deeply sneaky color. ~ Christopher Moore
Meaningful Song quotes by Christopher Moore
The May sunshine makes both the trolls and the elves disappear, he thought. They burst like soap bubbles. Only human beings remain, for a little while. We are a brief song beneath the sky, laughter in the wind that ends in a sigh. Then we too are gone. ~ Johan Theorin
Meaningful Song quotes by Johan Theorin
I think it says wonders about people that can write an entire album, and put out an entire album of great songs. I mean, the Brad Paisley's, Alan Jackson especially, even Taylor Swift - those people can really pen great stuff. ~ Joe Nichols
Meaningful Song quotes by Joe Nichols
With any cover, I like to choose songs that affected me strongly already. So it's tough sometimes to take a song that you love so much and put your own spin on it because you get such a strong feeling from the original. ~ Mayer Hawthorne
Meaningful Song quotes by Mayer Hawthorne
The mother sings a hungry song
Of blood and cracking teeth
She dances in the dark below
wants to pull us underneath

Her claws, they rise, they sway in dance
to the melody of screams
Her lullaby will never end
till the world comes apart at the seams ~ Amy Lukavics
Meaningful Song quotes by Amy Lukavics
Jerusalem is a festival and a lamentation. Its song is a sigh across the ages, a delicate, robust, mournful psalm at the great junction of spiritual cultures. ~ David K. Shipler
Meaningful Song quotes by David K. Shipler
I sing the songs that people need to hear. ~ Etta James
Meaningful Song quotes by Etta James
The band and I were leading at a Youth Specialties convention. We were asked to back up Matt Maher for one of the sessions. Matt handed us the chord charts and, with less than 5 minutes of practice, we were playing it live. I fell in love with this song immediately. You can't hear the message of God's sufficient grace too many times. Matt is a great lead worshiper and is a part of Life Teen, a growing worship movement in the Catholic Church. ~ Chris Tomlin
Meaningful Song quotes by Chris Tomlin
The problem with borders, I was beginning to realize, isn't that they are monstrous, offensive, and unnatural constructions. The problem with borders is the same as the problem with evil that Hannah Arendt identified: their banality. We subconsciously accept them as part of the landscape--at least those of us privileged by them, granted meaningful passports--because they articulate our deepest, least exalted desires, for prestige and permanence, order and security, always at the cost of someone or something else. Borders reinforce the idea of the alien, the Other, stories separate and distinct from ourselves. But would such fictions continue to stand if most of us didn't agree with them, or at least quietly benefit from the inequalities they bolster? The barbed wire begins here, inside us, cutting through our very core. ~ Kate Harris
Meaningful Song quotes by Kate Harris
I think parents today are looking for meaningful things for their kid. It's about feeding them something with meaning. ~ Ziggy Marley
Meaningful Song quotes by Ziggy Marley
Lack of harmony comes when I feel that I know how to do something better than you. Lack of harmony is the song and dance of superiority. Because everybody feels superior, disharmony at every moment is entering into our lives. ~ Sri Chinmoy
Meaningful Song quotes by Sri Chinmoy
My songs are my hookers. I can't worry about how they are going to be treated; they just need to bring home the bacon. ~ Ester Dean
Meaningful Song quotes by Ester Dean
All I'm saying, as a fan, is I'm tired of the same song for 30 years. Can't we change the message a little? You've arrived. You have a black president. Every white guy in a commercial doesn't have to be the idiot and every black guy in a rap song doesn't have to be God's gift to the world. ~ Bill Maher
Meaningful Song quotes by Bill Maher
