I listen to the phone-ins on the way home and I know how the fans feel.

My free time at home is usually spent emailing listening to music reading and talking on the phone. I wish I was on the phone less but I have been fortunate to stay in touch with so many incredible friends.

I like to listen to mellow stuff on the road like Travis as we are constantly surrounded by rock music on tour and so its nice listening to mellow stuff. Obviously back at home I listen to a lot more rock music.

Oh stuff the critics. I don't care. Too many people are snooty about classical. Look I wasn't brought up in a home where we listened to classical music. It was a singing teacher that thought it would be best for my voice. Then I moved into crossover. And if that makes the music accessible to more people then great.

Words today are like the shells and rope of seaweed which a child brings home glistening from the beach and which in an hour have lost their luster.

If anything a lot of electronic music is music that no one listens to at home hardly. It's really only to be heard when everyone's out enjoying it.

If you listen to Giuliani it's like nobody did anything to improve the city except him. I'm not part of the history. Bloomberg's not part of the history. It's like he did it. He's the only one. That's why he's a little crazy.

If America wants to retain its position as a global power its president must listen to the people and show strong leadership at this turning point in human history.

Hubert Humphrey talks so fast that listening to him is like trying to read Playboy magazine with your wife turning the pages.

Many of us believe that we need health care reform. That being said - Americans felt like they weren't being listened to. There were a lot of people across the political spectrum who said we don't want a one-size-fits-all healthcare plan.

When it comes to the health of our families Barack refused to listen to all those folks who told him to leave health reform for another day another president. He didn't care whether it was the easy thing to do politically - that's not how he was raised - he cared that it was the right thing to do.

We all have to work for happiness. And you cannot listen to other people. That is the worst mistake you can make.

I will always listen to my coaches. But first I listen to my body. If what they tell me suits my body great. If my body doesn't feel good with what they say then always my body comes first.

I was really into Black Sabbath but heavy guitars can really be very limiting it's a great frequency and it's great fun to listen to but on the other hand musically you can do a lot more without it.

Let us not listen to those who think we ought to be angry with our enemies and who believe this to be great and manly. Nothing is so praiseworthy nothing so clearly shows a great and noble soul as clemency and readiness to forgive.

I like to listen. I have learned a great deal from listening carefully. Most people never listen.

People in my family and camp who grew up listening to rap music love 'We Are Young.' I've heard it play at weddings. I've heard it in graduation parties. It's a big idea and big song.

If the government fails to listen to your demands then you will decide what is best for you.

We are all representatives of the American people. We all do town hall meetings. We all talk to our constituents. And I've got to tell you the American people are engaged. And if you think they want a government takeover of health care I would respectfully submit you're not listening to them.

And it is easy to believe you are not good enough if you listen to everybody else.

Listen there's a hell of a good universe next door: let's go.

A good listener is usually thinking about something else.

Children have never been very good at listening to their elders but they have never failed to imitate them.

I don't know if high society is different in other cities but in Hollywood important people can't stand to be invited someplace that isn't full of other important people. They don't mind a few unfamous people being present because they make good listeners.
