Huey Lewis Quotes

• Film is a lark to me - thank God I don't have to make a living from it.

• I am deluded enough to think I can bring something to the table.

• I don't tap dance, and I don't think you can learn to tap dance in three weeks at my ripe old age.

• I know my choices will be creative so long as I follow my heart.

• I may be the most recognizable name in the cast, but I can guarantee that I am not the most talented.

• I was knocked out by the show, Chicago.

• New York was the inspiration for The Heart of Rock and Roll and Workin' for a Livin'. There are a lot of songs in the streets of New York.

• Our first record, 'Huey Lewis And The News', was seen by no one - it sold 25 copies.

• Plan A worked well for 24 years. Plan B is the record we would have made if Plan A hadn't worked. It's anachronistic.

• The idea was to write the songs as they came to us, rehearse them, play them on the road, then, when there were 12, take them into the studio.

• Today, it's very tempting to create songs by cutting and pasting in the studio.

• We had several hits in the States but probably only one big one in Europe. The crowds are smaller.

• When Clover broke up, I had to come back to the US, find my six favourite musicians and form a band to play the local pub-and to hell with the music business.

• This is where people get it wrong. Some see us as a pop band, but we never have been just a pop band. Some see us as an '80s band. But if we started today, we'd be a jam band.

• Talk about old school. He was a music lover. Imagine that. He actually loved the music. They don't make 'em like that anymore.

• It is ironic that people who claim to care so much about protecting the Bitterroot River fishery will risk killing fish as a publicity stunt.

• It's hard to sometimes remember we're here to have a good time. Jack Lemmon was the best at that. I played with Lem and he'd have an 8 but he'd still smile and laugh with the fans. He had fun even though he never made the cut. He knew that's what he was here for.

• It's the Masters of the pro-am circuit.
