I don't believe people playing rock n' roll should have crowns. We're not kings and queens. Anybody can play it.
I loved being a rock and roll star, but it wasn't what I wanted in life.
You're not a rock n' roll person four hours a day or even when you're on stage. It's become the rhythm of your whole life.
It was always my belief that rock and roll belonged in the hands of the people, not rock stars.
It's taken me other places, but it was the impulse to write that led me to singing. I'm not a musician. I never thought of performing in a rock n' roll band. I was just drawn in. It was like being called to duty - I was called to duty, and I did my duty as best as I could.
I'm not really a musician. I'm a performer, and I love rock n' roll. I've embraced rock n' roll because it encompasses all the things I'm interested in: poetry, revolution, sexuality, political activism - all of these things can be found in rock n' roll.
