Bowie's obviously my biggest influence.

I sang in choir as a kid.

I had a period in my life in the '90s where I was definitely young, dumb, and full of even more dumb.

I want my ex-wife and children to be happy.

Great classic music that I've been turned on to has not only inspired and influenced me, but it has had an effect on my songwriting.

From Scott Weiland

To be a great band it's like you have that telepathy. You know when the bass player's in back of you without even looking. You know when your guitar player's coming up to you to lean up to you and sing into your microphone. You just know these things. You feel it. You feel the energy of it.

From Scott Weiland

Eventually I want to subsidize my income with other creative outlets that are going to not keep me tied to the road so much.

From Scott Weiland

Music, as many people have said, is the universal language. Of course points are made which make you think about things, but ultimately it makes you feel. And that's why people remember more songs that have meant something during their life than films. They start to define periods in your life, and that's kind of the beauty of it.

From Scott Weiland

Writing the songs and producing the songs and arranging them and recording them is your canvas and your palette and your brush.

From Scott Weiland

When I put out a record or single I don't allow myself to set up expectations like, 'This song must be a number one hit. Its got to sell X amount of records.'
