rap not-good-enough trying
I couldn't do rap. I was trying. I don't know how. I'm not good enough to know.
dream night cities
I had a really intense flying dream most of my childhood into my teens. I would go out at night and fly all over the city and I could facilitate other people to fly with me.
rap tired rocks
I got tired of the Ramones around the time I quit and I really got into rap. I thought it was the new punk rock. LL Cool J was my biggest idol.
song mean significant
I get really affected by songs as a music listener - they mean so much and they feel so significant.
strong caring people
I've always admired people with really strong presences and felt that caring about the visual component of what you do is not intrinsically superficial or vain.
thinking lines performers
I've always liked extreme performers; I don't think I am one, but my mentality is in line with that.
quiet-people thinking rude
Because I'm quiet, people think I'm really cold, or rude, or snobby. But I'm literally scared to talk to them.
rap party boys
Billboard called my solo album, 'Standing In The Spotlight,' a great party album and even said that my raps put the Beastie Boys to shame.
rocks band wanted
I've always just wanted to sing in a rock band.
hard
It's very hard to tour.
used used-to-be hairdresser
I used to be a hairdresser.
nice thinking would-be
I think it would be nice to be a prince.
song drinking coffee
Initially, I was very much concerned with having absolute control. But as time has gone by, I'm not. I mean, the whole first record was really just how I spent my free time: stoned and drinking coffee in my house, spending three hours on a song.
crazy sids lizzy
It was sad when Sid Vicious died... I was freaked out when Phil Lynott died from Thin Lizzy. I cried. It was too crazy.
