Nine out of ten groups that came out in '89 are gone. I'm still here.
God said, Here. Have it. Enjoy it. I'm gonna be miserable?
I'm really happy about American Woman, it brought the Guess Who back. They started gigging again and got their song out on commercials.
I never sit down to write or say, "Today, I have to record something." I wait to hear it and then I go for it.
My mom and dad would take me all over. One night we'd be at the Apollo watching James Brown, and then I'd be at the Joffrey Ballet. It was that kind of scene.
So that's why you've got to try, you got to breath and have some fun. Though I'm not paid, I play this game, and I won't stop until I'm done. But what I really want to know is - Are you gonna go my way?
I'm looking forward to going out at the concert with a clear head, with a clear mind, with a clear spirit and experiencing whatever it is. It's great.
Eleutheria, the fire is burning. Eleutheria, the tables are turning.
The fans of 'The Hunger Games,' of the book, are very passionate. It's funny: Even at my concerts there are people holding up 'Cinna' signs.
There's definitely an old school element to my music, but I also think it's modern.
People don't realize it, but no one lives that rock and roll life 24-7. They think it's hundreds of bottles of champagne flowing and private jets and money. But there's a lot of time when you're traveling - time to think, time to be lonely. Sometimes it gets to you.
God forbid you sing about love. It's a lost concept.
I am still into the people I listened to growing up, so I completely remember what is like to be a fan, I haven't changed.
If you ask a hundred people, they all give you different answers.
