I care about politics just like any other citizen. I'm against the war in Iraq, or any type of war.

I was happier before, when I lead a normal life.

The only thing I have no control over is the politics that goes on within the record company. It's always been the same, but it's far tougher now, because record companies are run by financial people; before, they were run by creative people.

And people coming up asking for autographs, there's only one time when it kind of bothers me: when I'm eating.

The power of music in Spanish is so strong that I couldn't stay away from it any longer.

I don't care what people say. My music's my music.

There are days that I wake up and I complain, and when I complain I pinch myself and say, 'that's for complaining.' Not many people can do what they really like in life.
