In my singles run, I would have to say my ladder match with Dolph Ziggler in Cleveland for the Intercontinental Title was probably a career highlight for me. If throwing that pretty boy through a ladder isn’t fun, I don’t know what is.
I can personally say if I’m not relevant in the singles world and my only choice is to play doubles, I’d probably stop playing tennis.
If you just focus on making singles, you lose the personality of the record. Because everything is not meant to go to radio.
Maybe ‘Can’t Stop Feeling’ and ‘Turn It On’ we’ll just release as singles. It’s a thing The Beatles used to do which I really loved, the idea of releasing something as a single completely on its own.
If I would get an album out every eight months and if I would write songs that were more up-tempo and try to focus more on making singles, then I could probably get more attention. But I don’t think the albums would be very fun to listen to, and it would be a drag for me.
I don’t have a long history of hit singles of my own. I had a few, and I had a little hot streak in the ’70s, but I’ve had a lot of success producing other people.
We stand with our Muslim community as President Trump singles them out for attack and unfairly-targeted policy.
I think at WrestleMania you definitely want a singles match and not have to share the spotlight with other guys.
I’m thrilled we’ve got a new single out, as singles were the way I first got into music as a child.
I enjoy putting out singles.
I don’t want to put 12 singles on an album. I want to make a story, a little movie.
They say the music you listen to in your formative years stays with you and leaves an impression for the rest of your life. For me, the things that I fell in love with happened in the ’70s, when artists were nurtured by record companies and it wasn’t about singles.
Sly Stone doesn’t make good albums: only good records. His style is so infinite and revolves around so many crucial aspects that it has only come together perfectly on a handful of his singles.
I wanna be the most successful socially aware artist: Grammys, number one singles, albums, overseas and internationally-known household name, all that.
Cheese is one of the world’s great foodstuffs and I speak as someone who would once happily snarf a packet of American-style cheese singles in front of the telly on my own.
After ‘Sports’ came out in the fall of 1983, everything changed for me. Four of the album’s singles became top-10 hits, and by the end of June in 1984, the album was No. 1 on the Billboard chart. It was quite a ride, and for the first time I had enough money to live the way I wanted.
Winning the championship at ‘WrestleMania’ was a dream come true because not only had it more than a decade since there had been a women’s singles match at ‘WrestleMania,’ but the fact that I got to win it against my best friend in a storyline that was so close to my heart, it was just all kinds of emotional.
I am going to make singles with other artists and put those out there – I’d love to work with Bruno Mars, Drake, Kendrick Lamar. But when somebody buys a Tee Grizzley album, all they’re going to hear is Tee Grizzley.
Singles needed to come back. And what I tried to do in my online experiment was to change the rules for myself and make available at a more regular pace the fruits of my labour, for people who decided they wanted to support my recordings.
When I first saw the trailer of ‘Only For Singles,’ the only thought in my head was that we live in ever evolving times but the problems for singles remain the same.
My audience is the baby-boomers, the bulk of the population. This is also a group that is being ignored by most record companies because they’re not the Top 40 hit singles market. They forget these people still listen to music.
I’ve always been a singles guy.
Mustafa Ali has never beaten me in any way, shape or form. Singles match or tag team match, Ali has never beaten me, so that’s part of why I’m so excited that he’s decided to join Retribution.
Singles have goals, responsibilities, deadlines, events, and friends that occupy their time, as well they should. Nonetheless, before any goals are achieved, responsibilities are fulfilled, deadlines are met, events are attended or friends are visited, God’s purpose should be accomplished.
I’m a Punjabi and I grew up listening to songs like ‘Latthe di Chaddar,’ one of my first singles.
For me, my favorite Mariah Carey songs were never the singles, ever. My favorite Mariah song of all time is ‘Sent From Up Above’ from her first album, or ‘Vanishing,’ songs no one talks about.
I want to win singles titles.
Envy, like the worm, never runs but to the fairest fruit; like a cunning bloodhound, it singles out the fattest deer in the flock.
I’ve been told I sold 110m albums and singles. If that’s the case, I should’ve come here in a space rocket.
My focus is to do the best I can in singles.
My song ‘Nevermind’ was named after Nirvana’s album, so when I had to choose a cover for my Spotify Singles session, choosing ‘Like A Stone’ by Audioslave was the natural next choice, as I grew up constantly listening to the song.
They’ve got the singles and some people have burnt them from different web sites and stuff. So it was something that we talked about for a long, long time, and I just wanted to make sure that this remix album to be really special.
Even when I played, if they gave me the microphone after a match, whether a doubles final or a singles final, I’d handle the microphone pretty well.
I want to build a fanbase. I want people to like my albums even more so than singles.
When you’re making this kind of music, you don’t need a producer. If you’re making pop albums or trying to write hit singles, then yeah, but if you’re writing 20-minute prog epics, as long as you know how to make it sound good, and you have a good mixer, that’s all you need.
If you oversaturate the market with singles, then people will get sick of you.
People like Sam Smith and Adele, they’re album artists but for me, where I go around the world and sounds are changing so quickly, singles are the best way to get those influences out there and try new things out.
I may just keep releasing singles ’til I run out of music, which is kind of cool in a way – as long as people don’t go, ‘Oh my God, not another one!’
I think I’ve grown a lot in the last few years, and I needed to express myself as an artist on this. It wasn’t necessarily about going in and making an album chocked full of hit singles… there were a lot of things I did out of the joy and the want to do it.
You have to ration your creativity over all your songs. You write a really cool pop song then you have to write a heavy song to balance out, then you need to think about singles.
Winning in women’s singles felt surreal. I felt that everything I had done – the hard work, the tough times – was all worth it.
Navratilova won an astounding 167 singles titles and 166 doubles titles in a career which has spanned nearly 30 years. She changed the game of women’s tennis by forcing opponents to reach her standards of fitness and athleticism.
One of the first 45s I ever bought was the Stooges’ ‘I Got a Right.’ Probably one of my favorite singles, ever.
Guys are bigger, stronger, just like in singles, serving bigger, returning better, and more athletic for sure. I think from my standpoint, just spending more time in the gym has enabled me to hang in there.
Usually albums are frontloaded with singles.
‘Hound Dog’ is a really short record, and most singles didn’t last three minutes.
Kindle Singles is publishing on skates. It prints like lightning; our book meets readers in hours. I’ve spent so many years waiting for publishers to consider whether they wanted to print a book of mine, making contracts, taking months to fit it into the Fall list or the Spring list, fitting it into an advertising plan.
The batsman does not always need to create big hits. He can hit a boundary, then pick up some singles and still gets nine runs. To avoid that, I need to plan in a way where he must look to hit wherever there is a fielder. That is what is called ‘bowling to the field.’
Once we went off into the singles world, I noticed there is something very unique about Brother Nero. People are drawn to him, and he has intangibles and charisma that cannot be emulated or duplicated.
