Where It All Lands Quotes

“Drew is the opening song on my favorite album. He’s the song that everyone loves, the song that draws me in and makes me want to listen to the whole album without stopping. He’s the catchy song with the great hook, fancy guitar solo, and soaring vocals. But Shane … Shane’s the hidden track. He’s the song I don’t listen to until I’ve devoured the whole album. He’s that quiet song with the unbelievable melody. The song that makes me understand myself a bit better. Once I discover a truly special hidden track, I never get sick of it.”

“No doubt about it, she’s good. And this piece, it’s technically perfect, but something’s missing. It’s like she’s playing to get it right, to get an A on some test that doesn’t exist. But that’s not what music’s about. Music isn’t like scoring points in a basketball game or knowing all the answers to a pop quiz.
