Basically, I’m A Musical Vocalist,

If You Give A Good Performance, Something That Gets Some Feeling Across To People, That’s Such A Rare Gift. It’s Underestimated At This Point In History, When The Music Biz Is Inevitably Turning Into A Kind Of Politics.

I Think That Prosecuting Some College Kid Because She Shared A File Is A Lot Like Sending Somebody To Australia 200 Years Ago For Poaching His Lordship's Rabbit. That's How It Must Seem To Poor People Who Just Want To Watch A Crappy Movie For Free After They’ve Been Working Themselves To Death All Day At Tesco Or Whatever, You Know.

I Never Say Never About Anything.

In The Morning I'd Write These Essays, Anything That I'd Feel Like Writing, And In The Afternoon, I'd Spend Time With My Guitar. I Had Decided After Listening To My Last Four Or Five Albums That My Biggest Weakness Musically Was Melody. The Reason I Had Been Singing In A Monotone Over The Chord Patterns In My Songs Was That I Never Practiced Doing Melodies.

I'm Not A Singer, A Walking Instrument Like Aretha Franklin. When You Get An Iggy Pop Record, You Don't Get "iggy Sings." I Am Also A Style Of Music, An Approach.
