Musicians don't retire; they stop when there's no more music in them.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
As far as artists and musicians, they don't retire. They might tour less.
Playing music is just one of the best things. I can't retire.
Our music will continue to have an impact in people's lives long after we finally call it quits.
As a musician, life is not over just because you are getting older, and so I find retirement a very frightening and dark thought.
Retire? Not on your life. I have no plans to stop singing. What are you going to do when you love music? It's a terrible disease. You can't stop. Of course, I'd like to get off the road.
Why do you have to retire at 65? Why can't you start at 70? You know, like wine. Why can't music be that way? My new band, we're playing stuff that's never been done before.
Most music careers slowly but surely go down.
There's a lot of bands that get to a certain level, and it just stops. They scrap it. Compare this to, say, The Rolling Stones or The Who, where they just continued on forever and are still playing, or they quit after 20 years.
The word 'retirement' doesn't really sit well with me. There comes a time when you reach a position in society or culture where people will not let you retire. You can say, 'Alright, I'm going to hang up my guitar,' but people will still not let you retire.
I'm a performer. We don't retire.
