Certain audiences get the double meaning and some of the references and ironies, but there's definitely been shows where I feel like I'm not doing it well enough for it to come across as anything other than "oh, she's hot and she's dancing."

It's a strange life... you really don't know how you will impact people or how things will play out.

It's very hard to separate what is a conscious decision and what's not.

Lots of people take the option of not activating their own life, of really letting it happen.

I am really inspired by writers, and weirdly - respect music journalists, which I think makes me the exception amongst most musicians. I think it's a craft. I think it's been really neglected - sadly. I think about the days of the great legendary rock critics. Who's going to become that when magazines and newspapers don't pay anyone properly or don't seem to respect the history or research that is required?

The architecture of the song, if it's built properly, can withstand all kinds of things.

It's not my fault that people are perverts.
