Brian Wilson Music Quotations

Pop music has been exhausted. The innocence has been exhausted. I think we've lost the ability to be blown away by music.

The Beach Boys have always been a part of the '60s spectrum, with The Beatles and that kind of thing. They were a part of the music business like everyone else. And they did quite well as a singing group, and I finished a lot of good records, and I'm very proud of them.

First of all, I want people to understand that I'm here to create for them. To create music for people so they'll know that I'm a source of love. And they can depend on my name.

Timothy White was the best friend an artist could ever have. The music business lost a true giant when we lost Timothy so suddenly.

I have rarely felt so welcomed in such a wonderful community that has given so much music to so many of us.

I have to tell you that J.S. Bach was easily the greatest musical innovator in the history of the world. He was so advanced for his time. There's a spiritual depth to his music. You can listen to it and it's like meditation.
