Vance Joy Quotations

I like to get suggestions on what to read. I'll look at Twitter, people I like, people I admire... I'll go and research the book, download it on my phone and read it while I'm on the road.

Ralph Fiennes and Edward Norton are among my favorite actors.

It's a weird thing to say you want people to be sick of your song, but I guess that's what happens if your song goes really well.

When I go to a gig and I hear a song that I really like, a song that hits home to me or hits an emotional nerve, if I could ever recreate that for someone, that would be the ultimate goal.

The fact I even get an opportunity to make one album is crazy. But if all goes to plan, I'll get to make five albums. That'd be nice.

I feel like I'd have a different approach to football now after doing music.

I just got a band together in mid-2012, and we played our first show in October of that year.

I'm a folk singer-songwriter. I am pretty poppy though.

I'm definitely not a super great guitarist. Ultimately, I just write a lot of love songs.

Most songwriting like poetry takes a careful selection of words. Sometimes you're just channeling something and a selection of words come out that you wouldn't normally say, but you come up with an assortment of words that are really special. It just makes sense even if it's normally how you wouldn't express yourself.
