You can never judge any music by their audience. That's the main reason people in England have a prejudice against someone like Skrillex. You judge people by their music. That's always been first and foremost.

Diplo

I've shown throughout my career that I have always put representing my state and country first and foremost. I love what I do.

Michael Clarke

I've always been a fan first and foremost - obsessing over bands and seeking out bands, and spending hours and hours listening. When I played music, the scope of my fandom became more myopic; I was focusing on the bands we were touring with, or the bands on the label. And you're always positing yourself in relation to other bands. Since I haven't been playing, I feel a little less cynical. I'm able to seek out music and approach it strictly as a fan.

Carrie Brownstein

People are first and foremost Republicans, first and foremost Anarchists, first and foremost a man or woman, and that is a mistake. It hurts the individual and it hurts the whole.

Peter Krause

My career aspirations as an actor have always been driven foremost by the creative desire to be versatile.

Jimmy Smits

Growing up, I always wanted to be in punk bands, so I'm really enjoying the harder, heavier element. It's always been my dream to have people moshing at my gig, kind of that really feral element of the music coming out more. I love crowd-surfing.

Florence Welch

I've been blessed enough to have my eyes open because of music, first and foremost.

Logic

I always felt that the music sells by itself. The music has always been the successful aspect on my career, and that means that, to me, I can always still stay very focused on music.

Enya

That's always been the process of our music, in a sense, keeping it simple, not being so heavy that you are beating people over the head, it's just weighted down and it's like, "oohhh I can't relate." People are able to relate because we talked about things that everyone has experienced, it doesn't matter your race or genre. Music was your mainstay. There was something in our element of music that connected.

Ali Shaheed Muhammad

My loyalty is first and foremost, to the people of Singapore. It has always been so, and will always remain so.

Ong Teng Cheong

I started out writing music for theatre and contemporary dance, so there has always been a dramatic and narrative element in my music.

Johann Johannsson

I'm not just a singer of funny songs; I am basically, first and foremost, a musician. I'm always recording all styles of music.

Ray Stevens

My musical roots and inspiration lie not in rock n' roll or metal music, but first and foremost in classical music, balalaika, and in underground house music.

Varg Vikernes

I'm a guitar player, really - I mean, first and foremost - I grew up with all that great 1960s music, in terms of growing up, becoming a musician, so it's like first-love stuff; I'm always going to go back to it.
