I'm really lucky that my record companies have been patient with me and leave me alone and give me the time to make it right in my mind.

But now I realize that this record business really needs me. No one else is trying to take a chance or do something different.

Those record companies don't know what's happening at all.

Don't give up, be positive and if you know someone who knows someone at a record company don't stop beating down their door till you get heard. Don't ever say it'll never happen or it'll never happen.

Do not let any record company disturb your creative flow. You are not writing for the record company. You're writing for the public.

Record companies would rather you stay dumb, not even think of it as a business, so they can either rip you off or get you out of the way in five years to make way for the new groups.

You don't need a record company to turn you into anything.

I'm one of those foolish people who believe the glory days of the record industry aren't behind us. They're actually ahead of us.

I can't stand making records.
