I like rules that are broken.
I like to make great albums.
That's what I so admired about Johnny Cash and June Carter. Their music wasn't a big influence on me. It was their character, their individual styles, what they were like as people. They weren't afraid to stick out.
You know, I just don't believe that art is supposed to make sense. I really don't think it's supposed to be analyzed to death. It's left to the listener or looker to get what they can get from it.
I like strength. I depend on my own.
I feel like I've kind of gotten to a peaceful place in my heart.
I can find some way to make poetry out of my life's experiences.
Well, I had a record deal since I was 18, and it got me where I am.
So it's the greatest compliment in the world when people want to hear you sing. That means it feels good to them, so I keep doing it.
My band can tell you, I'd rather do anything than rehearse.
I can't tell you how freeing it is to have my own label. For the first time in my career, I have total control.
The only way to get ahead in the music business these days is to call up all your friends. To pool your resources.
I was singing before I could talk.
It was hard to work and work and work and not get your music played on the radio.
I was an opening act for 10 years.
I'd like to thank my parents for always stressing, be an individual.
I just don't conform very well.
I wanted to be a rock 'n' roll star. It defines life for me. It's all I've ever imagined for myself.
Sure I got a mouth on me.
It is so killer to collaborate with someone who gets what you're trying to say.
