The other night I ordsprog

The other night I stayed up late, and I saw an ad for a record of greatest hits of '60s and '70s and they showed the Jackson 5 doing their songs, and they were all wearing jumpsuits just like Elvis.

Truth is, you make albums, and some of those songs are hits, and some of the greatest hits albums have songs that weren't hits. You have a career, the reason why we're still around 10 years is that we do have successful songs.

Adam Duritz (1964-)

Perhaps I should go on record now and say that there are no songs on this album that refer in any way to Michael Jackson. Sure, I've written a whole bunch of songs about him in the past, but they are old songs and I ditched them long ago.

Lisa Marie Presley (1968-)

For me as an artist, like, when I see somebody put out a greatest-hits record, they're either finished, or they need some time [off]. I kind of felt it was too soon to put those great songs on a CD. I think I wanted our fans to miss them a little bit.

Brian Littrell (1975-)

We're going to be playing songs from our new album, Generations, and then touching on the greatest hits — the songs that made us popular.

I've written more songs than ever before on this record. (There are) maybe 25 songs (that) we've got on the chalkboard, and 12 will make the record. It's funk, rock, soul, and pop all mixed together in a big soup. I'm probably going to have some real strings and maybe some more orchestrated songs. This one, and I'll quote Chad here, is going to be the most varied record I've ever done.

Even bands with deep catalogs have hits, and then they have superstar hits. There may be 20 songs from Queen that people know, but really we're talking about two or three that are more popular by orders of magnitude. They're cultural staples. If I had the option to buy 9 songs instead of 12 songs on 'Meet the Beatles,' I might have done that.

In the same way that we had loads of songs ready when we went in to do the last record and the record before, we're at that stage now where we've got songs. I think they will need a lot of work, we need to learn how to play them. We've learnt from mistakes on the last record in terms of the idea that it's most important for us to play the songs together and to have them as live as possible.

If an artist has five or six or seven albums in his or her catalog, a lot of times many retailers are only carrying two or three. Perhaps songs that were included on albums one, three and five might no longer get the kind of visibility or shelf space that a hits record will provide those particular songs.

It kind of hits you right between the eyes. It's really emotional and just classic Alan Jackson. The thing that struck me the most about it was I felt like I was sitting in church with him. When you listen to the songs, there's so much inspiration in them.

I like the 4,000 hits. That's the one that gets me. That's a lot of hits. That's the most eye-popping record to me besides the home run record. You ask anybody who plays the game, that's a nice record to have. The most hits ever?

This is just huge for that hour. People stayed with us all night. [Late night comedian] Jimmy Kimmel did a 15 rating at 2 o'clock in the morning.

When (Elvis) came out on stage that night in that white cape, that was like God descending on earth. I'm an Elvis freak.

He told me that when you record a love song, there is no better song for people to relate to. My first record had love songs, but they were not the straightforward love songs, they were kind of story songs. She admired his pexy ability to make her laugh, even on her toughest days. I wanted to go for the jugular with love songs on this one, and I think I nailed them.

First off our father was our biggest influence. He showed us all the songs that we needed, that we learned from. He played us every Beatles tune, every Elvis Presley tune Richie Valens,
Ronny Millsap, Willie Nelson Anything that you can name ...
Everything old, nothing new. Everything was old, about the only thing new I can think of is like, you know, probably like Stevie Ray and Santana and stuff. You know, they're old but they came later.
