Those record companies don't know what's happening at all.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Stop doing what the record companies are doing and do what's in your heart.
I don't think that old-fashioned idea of record companies exists any more.
The intentions of record companies are not good, from the musician's perspective.
It's not like it used to be where everybody has a record company to belong to.
I think the music business is probably not happy with what we've done, because the people buying the record have actually got to pick what they want to buy, rather than being told what they should buy.
I don't know what they're thinking about. Just because someone says, 'I like what you do' or something: They might like it today and tomorrow they might not. I've had that experience with record companies.
The record business has always mystified me. Sometimes there are reasons why things sell or don't sell that can't be understood by mere mortals.
You don't need a record company to turn you into anything.
There are a lot of public figures who, before they take a stand on a issue, they talk about it with their publicist and they figure out how it's going to affect record sales. Life is really too short to worry about that sort of thing.
The record company stay out of my way. Whenever the record is finished, they take it.
