David Byrne
  • The making of music is profoundly affected by the market.

  • We don't make music - it makes us.

  • People are already finding ways to make their music and play it in front of people and have a life in music, I guess, and I think that's pretty much all you can ask.

  • I'm not suggesting people abandon musical instruments and start playing their cars and apartments, but I do think the reign of music as a commodity made only by professionals might be winding down.

  • We tend to mistake music for the physical object.
