Quotes by and about Matt Bellamy

(Continued from his main entry on the site.)

Bellamy: "Making music is an expression of feelings of helplessness and lack of control that I think a lot of people can relate to."

Bellamy: "Music is really passionate. It has so much feel and flair to it."

Bellamy: "I was reading a lot about drones and what they're all about and everything, and to me, they are like a modern metaphor for what it is to lose empathy, and to start to not care much about what's going on around you, and what's going on around the world."

Bellamy: "I find Celine Dion's music completely offensive."

Gavin Haynes: "He is ... someone who doesn't seem to perceive reality in the same way as the rest of humanity. A little bit celestial. A little bit neuropathological."

Gavin Haynes: "Bellamy ... denies being a political songwriter ... 'I wouldn't say I'm concerned [with] politics in that sense. Everything [I've] done - it's been more about responding to the emotions involved in the situation.'"

Gavin Haynes: "If one emotion could be said to be binding together his ... socio-political stuff with the heart of the man himself, it's that sense of the loner, of the outsider trying to find his way through the maze."
