I gave up trying to please others and started playing for myself, and because I love music, things naturally happened then. Funny how that works.

I would love to compose something for dance before I kick the bucket, and I'm not closed-minded about the dance, or the dance company.

I've got tonnes of aboriginal and Native American art, but I'd like even more.

I felt sidelined by the industry, by the preoccupation with finding something newer, younger.

In our minds, love and lust are really separated. It's hard to find someone that can be kind and you can trust enough to leave your kids with, and isn't afraid to throw her man up against the wall and lick him from head to toe.

Romance is important to me, and to have a romance with your husband takes a bit of doing. The key is to make sure your partner misses you. That means you have to take yourself away.

Sometimes listening to music can motivate you. It can. But if you're a musician, that isn't always the way to get new ideas because you don't want to take somebody else's ideas. You need to find your own. So if you go to different artistic mediums, whether it's dance or it's visual arts or films or books, stories, sometimes it gets you hearing things, hearing progressions that you wouldn't come up with if you were just listening to other music because you don't want to copy progressions you've just heard.
