Don't make music for some vast, unseen audience or market or ratings share or even for something as tangible as money. Though it's crucial to make a living, that shouldn't be your inspiration. Do it for yourself.

  • -- Billy Joel 比利·乔尔

不要为一些庞大的、看不见的观众、市场或收视率份额,甚至像金钱这样有形的东西制作音乐。虽然谋生很重要,但这不应该成为你的灵感来源。自己做吧。
