Text Quotes
The Internet is the Wild West of the world, where anybody can throw anything down. Everything can be as relevant as the next thing; it doesn’t matter who posts it. In that environment, the Critics’ Choice is still very important  (James Bay Quotes) To drive though the streets of Manhattan to sign a record deal was like a movie. It was crazy - pretty hard to put into words.  (James Bay Quotes) And you don’t have to care, so don’t pretend. Nobody needs a best fake friend.  (James Bay Quotes) I love the intimate, single spotlight, troubadour-y quiet, delicate moments. But I also love Springsteen and screaming and shouting.  (James Bay Quotes) I’m very close in age to my older brother, and we had a field at the end of the road where we could run around, climb trees, play football.  (James Bay Quotes) Some of my songs are about the feeling you belong somewhere else. But there’s also something grounding about coming from a small town.  (James Bay Quotes) Being exhausted is all part of the fun. I’m cool with it. I’m not going to wish that it would slow down.  (James Bay Quotes) I like it when things crescendo to a huge moment like ‘Hold Back the River.’  (James Bay Quotes) When I’m writing, I need to amplify my thoughts and feelings on just a conversation that I might have had with somebody - somebody close to me. It’s often the case that the people closest to me are the people on my mind the most  (James Bay Quotes) There was a guitar that my uncle owned and never learnt to play. He sold it to my dad, and when I heard ‘Layla’, that was the tune that really grabbed me. I said to my dad, ‘Wait, there’s a guitar, right?’  (James Bay Quotes) My songwriting process, and maybe loads of other people’s, is just this sort of smashing together of emotions and stuff to make some music. It’s kind of simple and really complex at the same time and, as you can see, incredibly hard to explain  (James Bay Quotes) I loved pop music as a little kid. Things like the Black Eyed Peas. If it had a catchy chorus, I was into it  (James Bay Quotes) I bought a guitar CD-ROM because we had a new computer, but I had no attention span for that. I spent about three hours on it desperate to be brilliant. Eventually, I got some proper lessons  (James Bay Quotes) I like drawing people in the airport or on the bus or in venues. I like catching people in the moment. It’s a similar inspiration for me in terms of songwriting  (James Bay Quotes) I write about personal experiences. I write about things that have happened to me and the people around me, so you just sort of keep this antenna up and on the lookout for things to say  (James Bay Quotes) Up until the last minute, it was art and drawing for me. That was the first real and natural thing I thought I was good at and loved to do. But I developed a similar kind of love for music  (James Bay Quotes) When I was 16, I spent a year pushing trollies around a car park, and that wasn’t fun. I didn’t love working in a supermarket; it wasn’t for me. It is for some people, and that’s totally cool  (James Bay Quotes) And you don’t have to care, so don’t pretend. Nobody needs a best fake friend  (James Bay Quotes) I do some solo, acoustic stuff, but I also like plugging in my electric guitar and playing loud with a band  (James Bay Quotes)
