From Clash Music, here’s their list of most outrageous 100 quotes for all time (up to this point) but I it should have been titled the most Pompous quotes of all time, as they give space for 11 of their 100 quotes to the Gallagher brothers of Oasis. Liam and weren’t outrageous but just pompous ass clowns; the only thing I will agree with them is Liam Gallagher stating: “You’ve seen one of our gigs, you’ve seen ’em all.” Amen to that brother… Here are a few of my favorites from the list:
Decca Records’ rejection letter to The Beatles, 1962.
“I don’t know anything about music. In my line you don’t have to.”
Elvis Presley
“I’m the one that’s got to die when it’s time for me to die, so let me live my life the way I want to.”
Jimi Hendrix
“When I die, bury me on my stomach and let the world kiss my ass.”
L.L. Cool J
“When I first went to the Betty Ford Center I was very surprised they didn’t have a bar there… I thought they taught you how to drink like a gentleman.”
Ozzy Osbourne
“I’ve never had a problem with drugs. I’ve had problems with the police.”
Keith Richards
“I’m an instant star; just add water and stir.”
David Bowie
“As I get older my eyesight’s going bad, I don’t know what I’m in for [with groupies] until they come backstage and they’re very large with missing teeth.”
Nikki Sixx, Motley Crue
“Sometimes when I’m flying over the Alps I think, ‘That’s like all the cocaine I sniffed.’”
Elton John
“When you think about it, Adolf Hitler was the first pop star.”
David Bowie
And the most ridiculous quote (and I agree):
“Dance music was on its arse before we came along.”
Serge Pizzorno, Kasabian
BTW who the F is Serge and Kasabian, never heard of them…. honest and I’m a DJ of “dance music”.
