“Turn the goddam music up! My heart feels like an alligator!”
“Music is what feelings sound like out loud. I sing songs that speak from my heart. They tell my story, how I feel.”
“Alligators have beautiful undulating skin, which feels dense, spongy, solid, like the best eraser.”
“The function of music is to liberate in the soul those feelings which normally we keep locked up in the heart.”
“You maniacs! You blew it all up! Goddam you all. Goddam you all to hell.”
“Music is what I always turn to when I'm feeling a certain way. It's my reason for everything.”
