The top 10 most inspiring quotes by Angus Young
- I’m sick to death of people saying we’ve made 11 albums that sounds exactly the same, Infact, we’ve made 12 albums that sound exactly the same.
- I’ve got the blues in my heart, and the devil in my fingers.
- Every guitarist I would cross paths with would tell me that I should have a flashy guitar, whatever the latest fashion model was, and I used to say, ‘Why? Mine works, doesn’t it? It’s a piece of wood and six strings, and it works.’
- It’s just rock and roll. A lot of times we get criticized for it. A lot of music papers come out with: ‘When are they going to stop playing these three chords?’ If you believe you shouldn’t play just three chords it’s pretty silly on their part. To us, the simpler a song is, the better, ’cause it’s more in line with what the person on the street is.
- I don’t like to play above or below people’s heads. Basically, I just like to get up in front of a crowd and rip it up.
- There are all sorts of cute puppy dogs, but it doesn’t stop people from going out and buying Dobermans.
- Once you’re on stage you can’t go back, even when things go wrong people expect you to stay there and entertain them. When all else fails, you’ve got to try tap dancing.
- Actually, because I’m so small, when I strike an open A chord I get physically thrown to the left, and when I play an open G chord I go right. That’s how hard I play, and that’s how a lot of my stage act has come about. I just go where the guitar takes me.
- We want to appeal to everyone and get rich quick. We want to be millionaires. I’ve got this plan to buy Tasmania, you see.
- When I’m on stage the savage in me is released. It’s like going back to being a cave man. It takes me six hours to come down after a show.
