If you're good, and you know you're good, and you know you're better than those people getting paid to do it, you still have to have an open earโฆ.Nobody's music is the enemy of your musicโฆThe idea that someone else has made it when they shouldn't have made it is toxic thinking.
John MayerFathers be good to your daughters, daughters will love like you do. Girls become lovers, who turn into mothers, so mothers be good to your daughters, too.
John MayerIn a time when everything can be next day and ordered and put on credit and paid for, music to me is promise, all promise, very little realization. It's the promise of walking into a room with a guitar and not being sure you will leave with an idea that will take, not being sure it won't slip away from you.
