John Lydon Records Quotations

A record company used to be a very good thing, but they ended up soul-destroyingly trapping people in the accounting department. And you couldn't get any further, and the heads of each department were changing all the time, so you couldn't have any permanent relationship within the corporation.

I don't release records to be anything but enjoyable.

The record companies fell apart - quite deservedly. Their corrupting, all-binding contract nonsense had to stop.

I applaud the effort it takes to put a record together.

The day I run out of ideas is the day I stop making records.
