You want to do something, you want to have the bravery to do something original. And there will always be people who are like, the classicists who are like, ‘No, but it’s got to have this.’ In life, there are people like that attached to every single thing that there is. These are the same people that are like, still playing vinyl.
Meaning of the quote
Sometimes when you want to try something new and different, there will be people who say it's not right or it has to be a certain way. These people are like the ones who still use old-fashancient vinyl records even though newer music formats are available. They want things to stay the same and don't like change. But it takes courage to be original and do something different, even if others try to stop you.
