When I do a concert and people put their hands in the air, they're doing it on their own.

Back 20 years ago, I was recording with Bruce Springsteen, and his producer called me and said I had to be in the studio the next day to finish the sessions, and I couldn't. I had to be in court, in California. All this took like 10 years out of my life.

Stage performing is a dying art form.

I just want to get on stage and sing and be happy.

The people need to feel the music. That's what's so important, and that's what is missing. You have to let the audience feel you, you have to let them feel the love, feel the rock 'n' roll, feel the energy.

It doesn't pay to try, all the smart girls know why.
