Am I Machiavellian? I don't think I'm quite the mastermind people would have me be. Everything I do tends to be very successful and it may have something to do with the fact that I'm very good, not necessarily that I manipulate. But that doesn't often occur to people.

But I'm pretty good with collaborative thinking. I work well with other people.

I got a bad migraine that lasted 3 years, and the pills I took made by fingers disappear.

I don't like to read things that people write about me. I'd rather read what kids have to say about me, because it's not their profession to do that.

I guess, - a greater number of the 26 or so albums that I've made are known in Europe than they are in America.

There's a starman waiting in the sky, he'd like to come and meet us, but he thinks he'd blow our minds.

I think much has been made of this alter ego business. I mean, I actually stopped creating characters in 1975 - for albums, anyway.
