Quotes by Christine McVie

Christine McVie

“I was without a boyfriend for along time. I wouldnt settle for going out on a date just for the sake of going out. I was perfectly content. Id rather have that than a string of non-meaningful relationships.”

“Im looking more like my dogs every day-it must be the shaggy fringe and the ears.”

“I dont have a star-type attitude. Im down-to-earth. I tend to laugh at my success. I dont take myself all that seriously. If you take yourself too seriously in this business, youll get hurt badly.”

“Ive never written with the intention of writing hits. I guess Im a commercial writer, though. My songs do tend to come out two verses, bridge, guitar solo, last verse, and tag. When Ive finished a piece I do have my opinion about whether it will sell, of course, but Im not always right.”

“I didnt feel the inclination to put myself out on a limb that much on my first solo album. I stayed with songs that are simple and unpretentious. Thats what I do best.”

“At the moment Im really happy.”

“I wouldnt think a blues album would be that commercially successful, but I dont really care. Id do it for the love of blues, not for the money. Ive got plenty of money.”

“A duck walked into my kitchen this morning.”

“I cover most of the sound that we use on records with what I have. And people tell us that we still sound pretty big for a band with four instrumentalists.”

“Other people seem to write about love, dont they? It seems to be the least pretentious subject to write about. Ive been taking a lot of criticism for it, but at least its honest. But one shouldnt go and make a solo album if they cant take a little knocking, should they?”

Im looking more like my dogs every day - it must be the shaggy fringe and the ears.

I enjoy my money, and Im not ashamed to admit it. Id certainly rather be rich than poor.
