I try to sing many different kinds of songs. If I sing a batch of humorous songs, I'll throw in a deadly serious song. Or if I'm singing too many serious songs, I'll throw in a ridiculous song, to mix it up.
Making a record? You've got to have the song, then you create a record. I think it's the same with a live performance. If the material is strong, you're already 90% there. I always tell young people it's all about the music, the songs. Work on the so...
Most songs that aren't jump-rope songs, or lullabies, are cautionary tales or goodbye songs and road songs.
I thought if Oasis could get away with sounding like The Beatles, I could get away with sounding like Abba.
I'm a huge Beatles fan, but I've only really gotten into them as an adult.
Look at The Beatles: how they struggled, how they worked in order to become such a good little band. And that's why they had such longevity and are still admired today.
That thing about being an icon, the fifth Beatle, I just found it so freaky.
While other girls swooned over The Beatles and the Rolling Stones, I worshipped Rudolf Nureyev and Isadora Duncan.
That incident ruined my reputation for 10 years. Get one Beatle drunk and look what happens!
Stevie Wonder doing 'We Can Work It Out' by the Beatles is one of my favorite records of all time.
I met The Beatles and Stones at the same time, because Michael Cooper was doing several of their album covers.
What the Beatles did was something incredible, it was more than what a band could do. We have to give them respect.
I used to love the Beatles and the Stones and I'd always want to hang out with them, even though they were about seven years older.
I think between The Beach Boys, The Beatles, The Rolling Stones and innumerable acts after that... rock music became a huge economic force.
All I can say is, it's not very easy for a woman to be associated with The Beatles.
I just got into the Beatles a couple years ago, you know, I like it.

From theme song of the show: Boken Desho Desho, boken de ga.......its a good song
In every song I write, whether it's a love song or a political song or a song about family, the one thing that I find is feeling lost and trying to find your way.
A good song is a good song whatever your age.
Certain songs by hearing the rhythm, it tells you that is either a love song or you might be heartbroken or the songs give you the vibes and you just know that certain songs are militant that you have to write.
