I hope that just what I sing about and how I relate to my audience is as much of a political statement as I need to make.

It's funny, I get a little quieter with time. I don't want to chase my tail and one day repeat myself and repeat myself and one day have kids going to college and not have memories that I should, because I was too busy doing my thing.

I find sometimes it's easy to be myself, sometimes I find it's better to be somebody else.

There's a freedom to being young that is harder to come by as time goes on.

A friend is always good to have, but a lover's kiss is better than angels raining down on me.

Success turns a lot of people off. I have a pretty solid sense of joy and respect that irritates people, and can irritate me, too.

I think some people would say that I do overwhelm the words with the music, and sometimes thank goodness I do.
