You can't put down anybody. You can just try and understand. The emphasis shouldn't be on revolution, it should be on communication. Because it's just going to get more uptight. The more the revolution goes on, and there will be a civil war sooner or later.

Oooh, fashion, we are the goon squad and were coming to town, beep beep.

Frankly, I mean, sometimes the interpretations I've seen on some of the songs that I've written are a lot more interesting than the input that I put in.

The public, obviously, they takes things in a very simplest fashion and so they should. That's why we have such wonderful television.

I suppose for me as an artist it wasn't always just about expressing my work; I really wanted, more than anything else, to contribute in some way to the culture that I was living in. It just seemed like a challenge to move it a little bit towards the way I thought it might be interesting to go.

I didn't say that wearing a glamorization of the rock artist was any truer from the other thing.
