The UK is one of the places that has always been an advocate of my music and I spend a lot of time touring here. I've got family and friends over here, but more than that, there's a large Jamaican community and the Jamaican culture is very widespread in the UK which I love.

Damian Marley

When Vince McMahon did ICOPRO, that was ahead of its time. If it had came along five years later, it might have taken off because the products were good, but at the time, nutritional supplements weren't a thing back then.

Sean Waltman

As wave is driven by wave And each, pursued, pursues the wave ahead, So time flies on and follows, flies, and follows, Always, for ever and new. What was before Is left behind; what never was is now; And every passing moment is renewed.

Ovid

I probably won't be able to hear it until five years from now anyway. That's when I always hear my own music. It takes five years to sit down with it after not hearing it for a couple of years.

Alan Vega

Watching Michael Jackson was like taking a history lesson and a lesson on the future at the same time. If that weren’t enough, Michael then went and single-handedly revolutionized music videos. It’s amazing that today, some twenty-five years later, everyone who makes a pop music video still feels obligated to include a 'group dance' sequence like the one Michael pioneered in 'Beat It'. That’s how influential and ahead of the times he was.

Marcus Miller

Now, with the Internet, you're either five years ahead or you're five years behind, and the music game is catchin' up right now.

Pitbull

The only phrase I've ever disliked is, 'Why, we've always done it that way.' I always tell young people, 'Go ahead and do it. You can always apologize later.'

Grace Hopper

I always thought that the Babys were five years ahead of everybody else, I really do.

John Waite

In my lyrics, I used to always state two years ahead. I did that to make it seem like we were ahead of our time - a time capsule almost. It had never been done before.

Prodigy

It's always what you did before. The year before is always so much better. Even when the critics hated what you did then, it always looks better five years later.

Gian Carlo Menotti

I've always thought of music in the long term. I've always tried to write songs that people could listen to a couple of years later and maybe longer.

Gary Moore

I've been working in the music industry since I was 15 years old, and I feel like I've always been ahead of my time.

Wynter Gordon

I was working at a non-profit for five years. But I could always create music after work. All throughout those years, I was writing songs and recording music and performing around town.

Jussie Smollett

My relationship to images is always in flux... Photos I think are great can turn out to be not so interesting five years later, and vice versa. I've learned there's no thing as a bad photo - every one is a personal record of a time and place.

Nick Zinner

When you're from a boring town, you have to find things to do. It's funny: I always knew I wanted to make music, so I was always kind of ahead of my peers. I had an MP3 player by the time I was in the fourth grade.
