I thought I'd write you a lovesong And I sang it to you over the phone. (Beef Bonanza)
Car crime's low, the gun crime's lower, The town hall band CD, it's a grower, You never hear of folk getting knocked on the bonce, Although there was a drive-by shouting once, But there's a brass band everywhere, And I don't drive so I don't care, And as a nightingale sang in Berkeley Square, What's Chatteris if you're not there?

Nigel Blackwell
p>'Ah, see,' he sang, 'the shamefast, virgin rose first bursting her green bud so timidly, half hidden and half bare: the less she shows herself, the lovelier she seems to be. Now see her bosom, budding still, unclose and look! She droops, and seems no longer she- not she who in her morning set afire a thousand lads and maidens with desire.So passes in the passing of a day the leaf and flower from our mortal scene, nor will, though April come again, display its bloom again, nor evermore grow green.

Torquato Tasso
I was more of a dancing kid than a singing kid. I mean, I sang in school choirs and I sang in school musicals, but I was much more interested in dancing than singing. View quote
Madonna (entertainer)
He sung,-the notes at first were low, Like the whispers of love, or the breathings of woe: The waters were hushed, and the winds were stay'd, As he sang his farewell to his Lesbian maid! View quote

No, I've been singing forever. I started out doing musicals. I think that was part of the reason why they gave me the part, because I sang. View quote
Zooey Deschanel
My grandmother took me to church on Sunday all day long, every Sunday into the night. Then Monday evening was the missionary meeting. Tuesday evening was usher board meeting. Wednesday evening was prayer meeting. Thursday evening was visit the sick. Friday evening was choir practice. I mean, and at all those gatherings, we sang. View quote
Maya Angelou
My wife looks at the person Park Jae Sang and the singer who goes up on stage, Psy, as different people. (Psy)
The drug hit him like an express train, a white-hot column of light mounting his spine from the region of his prostate, illuminating the sutures of his skull with x-rays of short-circuited sexual energy. His teeth sang in their individual sockets like tuning forks, each one pitch-perfect and clear as ethanol. His bones, beneath the hazy envelope of flesh, were chromed and polished, the joints lubricated with a film of silicone. Sandstorms raged across the scoured floor of his skull, generating waves of high thin static that broke behind his eyes, spheres of purest crystal, expanding...The anger was expanding, relentless, exponential, riding out behind the betaphenethylamine rush like a carrier wave, a seismic fluid, rich and corrosive.

William Gibson
If for one minute you think you're better than a sixteen year old girl in a Green Day t-shirt, you are sorely mistaken. Remember the first time you went to a show and saw your favorite band. You wore their shirt, and sang every word. You didn't know anything about scene politics, haircuts, or what was cool. All you knew was that this music feel different from anyone. View quote
Gerard Way
The Beatles weren't like any other band. Everybody in the band sang, which is why you knew everybody in the band. View quote
Gene Simmons
I walked out and Jack Nicholson was sitting about six feet away, so I avoided that area and I looked up at the balcony in the back and sang the song. View quote
Elliott Smith
People don't listen to one radio station. On iTunes you can mix different worlds and bring country and pop and folk and live music together with a mass audience. I could have sung 'Easy' in a country way but I just sang it how I sing. I think it's a really nice blend. View quote
Natasha Bedingfield
Gurnemanz is still not absolutely certain that Parsifal is pure and a fool, as he makes the decision to lead Parsifal to the castle of the Graal, for Gurnemanz sang after they both had walked a while: Now pay attention, and let me see, if you are a fool and if you are pure ...! View quote
Theodor Reuss
I sang it about soldiers, then, later, about gay men. It touches me deeply every time. I used to perform this song at Mr Henry's and people would be totally silent. I knew it moved them. View quote
Roberta Flack
Waylon said it best when he sang to Willy; 'If you see me gettin' smaller, I'm leavin' don't be grievin', just gotta get away from here. If you see me gettin' smaller, don't worry, I'm in no hurry I've got the right to disappear. View quote
Waylon Jennings

Edith Sitwell
Our hearts seemed safe in our breasts and sang to the Light - The marrow in the bone We dreamed was safe. . . the blood in the veins, the sap in the tree Were springs of Deity. (Edith Sitwell)
Under the deeply moving impression of France's capitulation I congratulate you and all the German armed forces on the God-given prodigious victory with the words of Kaiser Wilhelm the Great of the year 1870: "What a turn of events through God's dispensation!" All German hearts are filled with the chorale of Leuthen, which the victors of [the Battle of] Leuthen, the soldiers of the Great King sang [in 1757]: Now thank we all our God! View quote
Wilhelm II of Germany
When I listen to a song, I don't say, 'Oh my gosh, that vocal line she sang was the best thing I ever heard.' I'm thinking, 'That lyric just moves me. That lyric just said what I feel better than I could say it myself.' View quote
Taylor Swift
It is said he made his earth-journey, and lost what he sought. It is said they felled him and cut up his limbs for firewood. And it is said his head still sang and was swept out to sea singing. View quote
Denise Levertov
Mine was a threeplank bed whereon I lay and cursed the weary sun. They took away the prison clothes and on the frosty nights I froze. I had a Bible where I read that Jesus came to raise the dead- I kept myself from going mad by singing an old bawdy ballad and birds sang on my windowsill and tortured me till I was ill. View quote
Basil Bunting
