I've always wanted the sound of Muddy Waters' early records - only louder

I'm so proud to be on a Kate Bush record; she's always marched to the beat of her own drum.

I like rock and roll, man, I don't like much else.

The colored folks been singing it and playing it just like I'm doin' now, man, for more years than I know. I got it from them.

I'm also very impressed with the best people in experimental electronic world, like Peta and Eckart Aillers and Finez and Jim O'Rourke and Oren Umbarci and Francesco Lopez. Most of them use the computer as their main instrument.

There's so much about Dolly Parton that every female artist should look to, whether it's reading her quotes or reading her interviews or going to one of her live shows. She's been such an amazing example to every female songwriter out there.
