When a band like Blondie re-forms, you wish them the best.

Rock n' roll is very special to me. It's my lifeblood.

To me, John Lennon and Elvis Presley were punks, because they made music that evoked those emotions in people.

Well, I think we're the greatest rock 'n' roll band in the world.

For better or worse, MTV sort of bridges the whole country together almost like the BBC does in England. It's opened up everything so wide that it's possible for everyone to have different ideas.

For me, punk is about real feelings. It's not about, 'Yeah, I am a punk and I'm angry.' That's a lot of crap. It's about loving the things that really matter: passion, heart and soul.

Lack of skill dictates economy of style.
