I have a love-hate relationship with performing.
The dynamic of a relationship changes when one person gets sober.
People's musical tastes are fickle, and music can be a fashion.
My head works in music, so there's always music there.
Lyrics are my racket; music is play - the fluff stuff.
Music is split up now into little pockets.
I am really addicted to music.
I don't like talking about music.
I don't have any hobbies. Music is my hobby.
I still don't know how to read music.
I'm a big fan of comedy music.
I'm not gonna be warded off the joy music bus.
We're all men, not machines. We make mistakes.
I can be a cruel person.
I'm the most boring person to talk to.
I bob and weave like Bob Weaver. I loved her like Robert is Bob—only longer.
Bob Hope was totally regimented. I go in and say a line like, 'Hi Bob' and I'd have to do it five times, and then Bob would take me to the writers to say the line different ways. He wouldn't let me ad-lib.
I don't know if music has ever achieved anything past appealing to the people that it appeals to. If a song could stop a war, then Bob Marley and Bob Dylan songs would have stopped one or two.
What I'm doing is basically the same as Bob Dylan did with folk songs and Woody Guthrie songs, the same as folk music's always done. I'm not going to sing about ploughing, but I'll write a song that sounds like it should be about ploughing.
The best way to express rhythm is music.
It's a pretty frantic world that we live in.
