I saw Stephen Sondheim's Sweeney Todd, which I thought was a masterpiece. Not that long ago, I listened to Blackstar by David Bowie and thought that was a masterpiece. Those are two incredibly talented people who've left their mark with us.

["A Deal with God"] was the first single off Hounds of Love. I'd put a lot of work into putting that album together and I wanted it to have every chance.

I wasnt an easy, happy-go-lucky girl because I used to think about everything so much, and I think I probably still do.

When I was singing "King of the Mountain," it was a pivotal point in the show. That's the song that took us from this concert setting of individual songs into the theatrical narrative piece.

I will say it is great to have a woman in charge of the country.

I've learned you can't take any steps to protect any art. It is so vulnerable.

I haven't actually seen a Lady Gaga tour, but I do think she's very good.
