If your music is great, you will have fans, not because you have spent time chatting on social media.

I just know that I'm a fan of all different kinds of genres. You're supposed to be free doing music, and that's how I feel.

To those supporters who were told that I abandoned them, that is untrue. I abandoned greed, corruption, and compromise, never you, and never the artistic gifts and abilities that sustained me.

When I have a creative insight, there is a high. I think back in the day, I made music as much as I did because it made me feel so good. I think you could argue that there is a creative addiction - but, you know, the healthy kind.

I think everything Joni Mitchell did for music was big.

I believe that music is a force in itself. It is there and it needs an outlet, a medium. In a way, we are just the medium.
