Text Quotes
I like getting requests from audience members  (Steve Forbert Quotes) I’m self-deprecating, but I’m an artist, too. I have to write new songs to chronicle stuff for myself. I write a song like ‘Middle Age’ or ‘Responsibility’ or ‘I Just Work Here,’ and it’s about how bleak life can be. But it’s real.  (Steve Forbert Quotes) It doesn’t matter much what kind of house you’ve got as long as it’s a happy home...  (Steve Forbert Quotes) As you get out and try to do things, you always find that in order to make an idea a reality, it goes through some changes. It doesn’t always come out exactly like you envisioned it.  (Steve Forbert Quotes) I’ve been traveling around to play music since before I even had a driver’s license  (Steve Forbert Quotes) It’s not like making records is terrible. Still, I do find the writing of the songs and the live shows to be the things that give you the most clear picture of what it’s all about.  (Steve Forbert Quotes) People can’t stay out of their cars. I do think we have a real problem staying out of our automobiles. We have a real dependency on them, and it may be for more than just transportation.  (Steve Forbert Quotes) You have a song, and people know it. It’s like a calling card for you.  (Steve Forbert Quotes) Music should be truthful and real, but it should also be healing and uplifting  (Steve Forbert Quotes) My priority doesn’t lie with the whole website and Facebook and such; I’m still walking down the road in a pair of real shoes. You need to just play as much as you can. Get in front of people, as I’ve always said. It doesn’t matter if it’s ten people at an open mic or opening a show for someone. Play all the time.  (Steve Forbert Quotes) If something doesn’t work, you have to admit it. Always try to find what’s going right and what’s going wrong with your music. If you can, pool your resources and record yourself; do that frequently.  (Steve Forbert Quotes) But I’m able to just keep going, and that’s the challenge. It’s the next song. And then just enjoying the shows and people who come out to the shows. It’s pretty organic, really  (Steve Forbert Quotes) It’s often said that life is strange. But compared to what?  (Steve Forbert Quotes) I’m not trying to be the new anybody  (Steve Forbert Quotes) I relate to the audiences and they know me. It’s pretty real  (Steve Forbert Quotes) I just play, and I’m always trying to write songs  (Steve Forbert Quotes) And the music, as far as a type of music, it’s still pretty viable  (Steve Forbert Quotes) It doesn’t matter much what kind of house you’ve got as long as it’s a happy home  (Steve Forbert Quotes) I wouldn’t be interested in just doing a show that’s mapped out and choreographed with a set list. That would’ve been boring so long ago it just wouldn’t be any fun  (Steve Forbert Quotes) I don’t cringe when I think of doing old material. A lot of the people have been with me through the years  (Steve Forbert Quotes)
