Pop music is a fashion, and fashions come and go. The public retires you as their tastes change.

I was in the Chilli Peppers at the time and I asked myself, would I be able to wear a sock on my genitals at the age of forty and they proved me wrong because I guess they're still doing it.

The way that I make films is that I sit down and I think, "How much money could I get with less consequences?" And that's how I start. I'd rather have less money and total autonomy than more money and start having to answer to things, because then I'm not being true and the money men are not being true.

I don't like to write any music to a script. Experience has taught me that's generally a waste of time.

Censorship has kind of disappeared in a way because everything is accessible online.

I like challenges and I definitely would like to be more of a chameleon.

If I had kids, I don't think I would recommend they pursue a career in music.
