A Quote by Dan Hill

All the Junos, the Grammy nominations, the gold and platinum records, did nothing to assuage my conviction that I was an out-and-out loser.

I can't immediately get all this coverage when my record comes out. The way I sell gold and platinum records is by being on the road.

TobyMac

I wanted to sell a million records, and I sold a million records. I wanted to go platinum; I went platinum. I've been working nonstop since I was 15. I don't even know how to chill out.

Beyonce Knowles

For the first six years of my career I was independent. I got on to a major and did my thing there. I had platinum and gold records and all that.

E-40

I was completely shocked - two Grammy nominations. I've said it out loud to myself about 100 times.

Michelle Zauner

I have records in gold, in platinum, I have two Oscars, I have Grammys and so on.

Celine Dion

The fans are the end result of what we do. Sometimes I think we forget that those are the folks that mean it in this game. There's plenty of evidence to be found that you can have all the #1 records in the world, but if you really ain't touchin' them, you don't come home with gold records and platinum records. I'm very proud that we've only had one #1 record, but we've sold two and one half million!

Aaron Tippin

I don't think if you set out to make an album to get a bunch of Grammy nominations... you just have to set out to make an album you'll really love.

Finneas

When I started out on 'The Biggest Loser,' for me it was kind of embarrassing to be on national TV and go from this wrestling icon, this Olympic gold medalist, to being on 'The Biggest Loser.'

Rulon Gardner

Well, the album 'Intuition' is out and just went platinum officially. So I think to have the music doing what it's doing right now, man, it's the ultimate. Nobody is really selling records out there but we are at a million records and we dropped it at Christmas, so we are just trying to get that thing to like two million, you know.

Jamie Foxx

I think I gave indications early on that mine wasn't just going to be a commercial, er, career. If that were the case, then the first record would have been 10 versions of 'Loser.' I always thought it would be interesting if there was no such thing as gold and platinum records, or record deals, and people were just making music. What would the music sound like?

Beck

I don't need material things like gold and platinum records on my wall, Grammys or Hall Of Fame nods.

Tommy Lee

I got so excited about it. I was like, 'Yes! I won a Grammy!' And then my manager was like, 'No, you did not win a Grammy. You were part of a song that won a Grammy. Rihanna won a Grammy.'

Bebe Rexha

If I never sang on a record again I can still look at my walls. They are covered floor to ceiling with gold and platinum records from all over the world.
