Let's get rid of all the economic (expletive) this country represents! Bring it on, I hope the Muslims win!

How much did you get for your soul?

I don't want my children to be at a disadvantage, growing up in the limelight, because then they have to live up to an identity already cut out for them, relating all the time to being so-and-so's daughter or so-and-so's son.

I don't like to think that I'm on a treadmill of album, tour, promotion and all that.

I think if I lost an edge, or the music didn't have the aggression or whatever, which is maybe one of the hallmarks of what I do, if indeed it is, I still think if you have something original in what you do and you keep doing that, then you're all right.

In fact, I've only been to a couple of other people's dinner parties. But I must admit, I really enjoyed the few I've been to, but I'm not really on that circuit.

I'm all for bootlegging. A record costs $20 . . . who can afford that?
