I was 21 and homeless - such a broken, lost woman.

Driving, for me, means power and freedom. The feeling that I can go anywhere I want at any time is exhilarating.

I do it live on tape with a band. It's not like I'm doing electronic music with a laptop.

I want people to have a good time. Its boring only to hear singer/songwriters spilling their guts.

I wanted to create something really aggressive and psychedelic

I can cry myself to sleep because I'm not as great as Leonard Cohen, but who cares? Maybe you can't be as great as some people, but it's a tragedy when you don't follow your dreams.

My whole art is based on escaping life and reality, which might not the best tendency to have when you're trying to be a good person in general. But people can escape into my world easily - artists are supposed to create a keyhole that people can look into.
