I think a lot of people came into rock n' roll to try to change the world. I came into rock n' roll to make music.

I was listening to music long before rock 'n roll.

I always loved rock 'n' roll.

I loved the music, but the excesses of rock n' roll never really appealed to me at all. I couldn't see the point of getting up in front of a lot of people when you weren't in control of your wits.

The Beatles changed music forever. They took rock n' roll from a medium that was about cars and girls and gave it context, interesting chord changes and true musicianship.

I was born at the beginning of rock and roll. I got to experience the entire evolution of popular rock and roll music even before it started.

I always felt rock and roll was very, very wholesome music.

We had a really vast music collection and I was raised around rock'n'roll, it's just the way it was.

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.

I grew up listening to everything. And rock and roll has always been a big, big part of it - as big a part of what I do as any other type of music.
