Selling millions of albums is a sign you've infiltrated the culture.

I think it would be nice to sell 15 million albums as a solo artist. I'd have to deal with all the repercussions of that, but that wouldn't be too bad.

Selling eight million copies of your first album will mess you up.

There is a downside to having one of the biggest-selling albums ever.

But when our first album came out, I didn't think it was going to sell a lot of records.

If I cut an album now and sell it for ten bucks, I can put seven dollars and fifty cents in my pocket.

Nobody's going to sell 10 million records by not working hard.

If I was going to sell out, I would do it for more than 10,000 records.

It's a blessing and a curse when your first big public album does so well. 'Twentysomething' sold four million copies - I think we were hoping to sell 80,000. And it's still selling. In some ways, you'll always be defined by that.
