The disco sound, you must see, is not art or anything so serious.

I don't think there is too much art involved in what I do.

Once you free your mind about the concept of harmony and of music being correct, you can do whatever you want. So nobody told me what to do, and there was no preconception of what to do.

Nowadays you need so much money to be able to launch a new artist, notably in America; you would hardly believe the sums involved.

In pop or rock you can make a fast song or a slow one, but in disco there is really just the one rhythm.

Phil Ramone is very special. Barbra Streisand or Diana Ross... they are the best.

In both pop and disco, the meaning of the lyrics is not too important. I have nothing I feel I particularly want to say.
