I think Behind the Music is good for people like Leif Garrett and Motley Crue.

I look around me and I don’t see any rock’n’roll at the moment. Instead it’s all choreography and stylists and wigs and stuff. It’s like they’re afraid to let the music breathe. No one has their own identity like the Ronettes did back in the day. We had the skirts with the slits up the side, sort of tough, sort of Spanish Harlem cool, but sweet too. We didn’t have no dancers, we didn’t have no goddamn wigs.

I mean, Janet Jackson? She's like Michael Jackson with hair.

I love the fact that 35 years later, I still hear my songs on the radio.

Kill Rock Stars allowed me to put out a real genuine rock 'n' roll record.

My honeymoon night was spent on the floor in the bathroom with my mother.

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