When I use the Internet, it's pretty much strictly for music. Checking out other people's web sites, what's going on, listening to music. It's pretty much a musical thing for me.

You have to do what you need to do as an artist. You have to have that courage.

Music is sound. It's a wave. It's going out and coming back, and it's bouncing off.

Picture being forced to talk endlessly about your feelings and listen and care when what you needed was just to get something done.

That's exactly what's exciting for me - the idea of infiltrating the male structure and affecting change from within.

Now, in music, it seems more like the popular crowd suppresses anyone who is different.

I have my head screwed on right. I haven't been this way in a long time.
