I believe musicians have a duty, a responsibility to reach out, to share your love or pain with others.
People who have gone, are still here, in us. Places we came from, are carried to the places we go.
My new year's resolution: Never be afraid to be kicked in the teeth. Let the blood and the bruises define your legacy.
There is nothing Holy about hatred.
I see love in black and white. Passion in shades of “gris”. But when it comes to you and I, color is all I see.
There's a category for me. I like to be referred to as a good singer of good songs in good taste.
The feeling you get from playing to a good audience is hard to describe without sounding as though you are talking silly. But reaction is important. You might feel in yourself that you're doing it ok but it's when you get the live reaction that you know you're doing it right.
Each gig should be unique. You're always treading that line between keeping yourself fresh and giving people something they want to hear
Singing, it's like it's like loving somebody, it's a supreme emotional and physical experience.
Never judge someone. Especially if you don't know them, because you don't know what they're going through. And for all you know, your words could be the last thing they hear before they decide they have had enough.
I guess I'm still holding on to something that I know will probably never happen, because somewhere deep down inside me, I have this little piece of hope that someday, it will.
I gotta feel alive, even if it kills me. Promise to always give you me, the real me.
There is an ancient Indian saying that something lives only as long as the last person who remembers it. My people have come to trust memory over history. Memory, like fire, is radiant and immutable while history serves only those who seek to control it, those who douse the flame of memory in order to put out the dangerous fire of truth. Beware these men for they are dangerous themselves and unwise. Their false history is written in the blood of those who might remember and of those who seek the truth.
The Clan Mothers ran everything and had the last word. I think that's the answer.
Sometimes the best moment to sing a victory song is in the middle of your battle.
When you lose what you love remember to stay strong. Look out the window and remember life goes on.

What goes around, comes around.
In the 70s, GEORGE CLINTON and PARLIAMENT FUNKADELIC and EARTH WIND & FIRE, we were very serious about our music and who we were trying to touch. I think that's why the music of the 70s has not died - because it has a rejuvenating quality to it.
The goths are beautiful, a vast depth of subcultural, aesthetic and poetic ideas, and we would identify with that as we did back in 1979. But not the post modern distortion...the costume without the brain.
I am an observer of life, a non-participant who takes no sides. I am in the regimented society, but not of it.
I have been a provoker and I'll probably always be one in the public arena for the rest of my life.
It is true, of course, that there is no way of knowing for sure whether or not you can trust someone, for the simple reason that circumstances change all of the time. You might know someone for several years, for instance, and trust him completely as your friend, but circumstances could change and he could become very hungry, and before you knew it you could be boiling in a soup pot, because there is no way of knowing for sure.
I am not a perfectionist, but still I seek perfection. I am not a great romantic, but yet I yearn 4 affection
