Brian Wilson: Frasi in inglese

“My mother used to tell me about vibrations.”

"The Beach Boys: The Healing of Brother Brian" http://www.rollingstone.com/music/news/the-healing-of-brother-brian-the-rolling-stone-interview-with-the-beach-boys-19761104?page=6 in Rolling Stone (4 November 1976)
Contesto: My mother used to tell me about vibrations. I didn't really understand too much of what that meant when I was just a boy. It scared me, the word "vibrations." To think that invisible feelings, invisible vibrations existed, scared me to death. But she told about dogs that would bark at people and then not bark at others, that a dog would pick up vibrations from these people that you can't see, but you can feel. And the same existed with people.

“I wanted to write joyful music that made other people feel good.”

Contesto: I wanted to write joyful music that made other people feel good. That’s what I tried to do for the past 27 years.

“All of us have the privilege of making music that helps and heals — to make music that makes people happier, stronger and kinder. Don't forget: music is God's voice.”

But long as there are stars above you
You never need to doubt it
I'll make you so sure about it
