Sing Quotes

[from trailer]

Buster Moon: A singing competition. Just think, your neighbor, the-the-the grocery store manager, that-that-that-that chicken, right there. Everyone in the city gets a shot at being a star live on my stage!

[from trailer]

Johnny: [talking to his father through an inmate phone service] Dad, I just don't want to end up being in your gang. I want to be a singer.

Big Daddy: How do I end up with a son like you?

Johnny: [as he father storms off] I'll get you out! Dad, wait! I'll get the money, I promise!

Big Daddy: Johnny, you were supposed to be keeping a lookout!

Johnny: Sorry, dad.

Buster Moon: Why aren't you rehearsing?

Frog: I'm through! They said I'm an intolerable egomaniac. I don't even know what that means!

Buster Moon: Are you okay?

Gunter: Oh yes I'm fine, thank you... How are you?

Johnny: [imitating his father while driving] "Soft on the corners, Johnny! You don't do it any right, Johnny! Speed up, Johnny! Do it like I showed you-"

[screams as he realizes he's charging straight into his father]

Buster Moon: [Hears Meena singing 'Hallelujah' on her headphones] You think you can sing like that? In front of an audience?

Meena: I don't know. But I'd like to try.

Buster Moon: Good. Because I want to see it.

Buster Moon: [showing her a shiny, overly flashy outfit he wants Ash to wear for the performance] Isn't this a great color for you?

Ash: I can't tell. It's melting my eyes.

Lance: [going over the song list given to Ash by Buster Moon] Man, these are like the cheesiest songs of all time!

Ash: I know right? I mean, I was thinking of writing my own song instead.

Lance: Wait, what? Your own song?

Ash: Well... Yeah.

Lance: Look, if you wanna win that money... Just do what the koala says.

Ash: Why, you think I can't write my own song?

Lance: Hey, I'm just saying. Not everyone can write songs, okay? I may make it look easy, babes, but no it's not!

Ash: [Ash has just discovered that her boyfriend, Lance, has been cheating on her and is throwing him out of her house] I DID ALL OF THIS FOR YOU...

[throws Lance's guitar case into his lap, knocking the wind out of him]

Ash: FOR *BOTH OF US!*

[Ash slams the door behind her. She looks hurt as she listens to Lance and his new girlfriend Becky]

[Johnny is practicing on the piano; he bangs the keys, fursterated]

Johnny: [groaning] Oh!

Miss Crawly: [casually] I know, that was very bad.

Ash: Hey, Moon, you gave me the wrong list! Cheesy pop's not exactly my style.

Buster Moon: Style. I'm glad you brought that up. Now, let's see. There... Isn't this a great colour for you?

Ash: I can't tell. It's melting my eyes...

Buster Moon: Just look at you, dear. Wow! You don't look a day over 90.

Eddie: [embarrassed] Oh, my gosh.

Buster Moon: Buster Moon. We met at Eddie's graduation.

Nana: Oh, lucky me. A visit from my useless grandson and his ghastly little theater friend.

Buster Moon: Look at that. She remembers me.

Buster Moon: If your folks could just loan me the money until...

Eddie: $100,000? Buster, come on.

Buster Moon: Hoo! I gotta think. I've gotta think. I've gotta think. I've got to come up with a solution...

Eddie: Look, maybe it's time to stop thinking and it's time to just move on. I mean, this theater of yours, you could get some decent money for it and... I don't know, maybe we could do something together.

Buster Moon: What? What, sit around playing video games? Do you know what that is?

Eddie: Uh, it's a bucket?

Buster Moon: Yes, and do you know why I have this bucket?

Eddie: 'Cause the roof is leaking?

Buster Moon: [pointing to another bucket] No, that's the bucket for the leak.

Buster Moon: [Ash finishes her set] What about that? We just witnessed the birth of a genuine rock star!

Ash: Moon, you've... you've got some stuck here.

Buster Moon: [she pulls a quill from his cheek] Ow!
