David Gilmour

I don't like to get too specific about lyrics. It places limitations on them, and spoils the listeners' interpretation. ”

I think a guitar solo is how my emotion is most freely released, because verbal articulation isn't my strongest communication strength. My wife thinks that I should do interviews by listening to the questions and playing the answer on guitar. ”

The expectation on me as a solo artist is very different to the audience's expectation of a Pink Floyd show. ”

I can't help other people's frustrations. I don't owe people anything. If people would like to come to my concerts, I'd love them to come. And if they like the music that I make, I love that, too. But I do not make music for other people. I make it to please myself. ”

I love singing. I have spent as much of my life trying to improve my singing as I have practising guitar. ”

I don't want to be a full-time member of Pink Floyd all my life. ”

I am a lover of all sorts of different music. I love blues and every piece of music that I have listened to has become an influence. ”

Well, I am David Gilmour, the voice and guitar of Pink Floyd. I have been since I was 21. ”

I think I could walk into any music shop anywhere and with a guitar off the rack, a couple of basic pedals and an amp I could sound just like me. There's no devices, customized or otherwise, that give me my sound. ”
