"Whenever I start to really think about what I'm playing, I may play it better musically, but the feeling isn't there"
- Ace Frehley
About this Quote
This quote by Ace Frehley talks to the value of feeling in music. He suggests that when he starts to think too much about what he is playing, he may play it much better technically, however the feeling is lost. This recommends that sensation is a crucial component of music, and that it is necessary to not overthink the music. Instead, it is very important to let the music flow naturally and to let the feeling take over. This is a suggestion that music is an emotional art type, and that it is very important to let the emotion come through in the music. It is also a reminder that technical ability is important, but it needs to not be the only focus. Feeling is simply as important, and it should be accepted in order to produce the best music possible.
