I was very impressed with Hanson's performance. I thought that little drummer was a kick-ass drummer, and uh, that they sang great, I mean I didn't know either, y'know, that these little boys, y'know, I was very impressed. I think they'll probably be around in 20 years writing good songs, and being a great band.

Now here I go again/I see the crystal visions. I keep my visions to myself.

I am pretty fearless, and you know why? Because I don't handle fear very well; I'm not a good terrified person.

I have my own life. And I am stronger than you know.

Most women would not be happy being me. People say, 'But you're alone.' But I don't feel alone. I feel very un-alone.

I blame it [never taking a break] on my mother. She was a born entertainer. Leave the songwriting, the singing and all that behind, and I still would have found some way to be an entertainer. I would have never been an actress, though, because I realized early in my life, in like sixth grade, I was a terrible actress.

It was my 16th birthday - my mom and dad gave me my Goya classical guitar that day. I sat down, wrote this song, and I just knew that that was the only thing I could ever really do - write songs and sing them to people.
