I am just a little tired of the Stones and the Beatles, and I don't care if I ever hear 'Louie Louie' ever again.

Half the time I feel like I'm appealing to the downer freaks out there. We start to play one downer record after another until I begin to get down myself. Give me something from 1960 or something; let me get up again. The music of today is for downer freaks, and I'm an upper.

A little mordida, here. A little mordida, there.

From 1958 to 1964, that's real rock n' roll. Then the Beatles hit and everyone sounded like them.

My fake Japanese was smooth enough to earn me the title of 'The Emperor of Pleasing Graciousness' in that country.

Two thousand years from now they'll still be hearing about Elvis Presley.

We are put on this earth to have a good time. This makes other people feel good. And the cycle continues.
