In my songs, I try to look through someone else's eyes, and I want to give the audience a feeling more than a message.

You can do whatever you like with my image, my music, remix it, re-release it, whatever... just never make me boring.

I think the best duets are those where there's a dialogue back and forth, and then the two singers go into a thing together.

People, whether they know it or not, like their blues singers miserable. They like their blues singers to die afterwards.

Music's for grooving man, and music's not for puttin' yourself through bad changes, y'know? I mean, you don't have to go take anybody's shit, man, just to like music, y'know what I mean? You don't. So... so if you're getting' more shit than you deserve, you know what to do about it man. Y'know, it's just music. Music's... music's s'posed to be different than that.

I'm just a musical prostitute, my dear.
