I've never had any religion. I'd prefer it if I did, really. Even as a boy I just couldn't make myself believe.

David Gilmour

It's a magical thing, the guitar. It allows you to be the whole band in one, to play rhythm and melody, sing over the top. And as an instrument for solos, you can bend notes, draw emotional content out of tiny movements, vibratos and tonal things which even a piano can't do.

David Gilmour

I love singing. I have spent as much of my life trying to improve my singing as I have practising guitar.

David Gilmour

I actually learned the guitar with the help of a Pete Seeger instructional record when I was 13 or 14.

David Gilmour

If people would like to come to my concerts I'd love them to come. And if they like the music that I make, I love that too. But I do not make music for other people. I make it to please myself.

David Gilmour
