I've never written a political song. Songs can't save the world. I've gone through all that.

I do not trust self serving misinformation coming from corporations and their media trolls. I do not trust politicians who are taking millions from those corporations either. I trust people. So I make my music for people not for candidates.

Politics can be strengthened by music, but music has a potency that defies politics.

The Beatles haven't got any magic you haven't got. We suffer like hell anytime we make anything, and we got each other to contend with. Imagine working with The Beatles, it's tough.

Political power means the capacity to regulate national life through national representatives.

These political fiends are not half sick enough yet. `Party malice' and not `public good' possesses them entirely.
