Whatever fame came did so not because I sought it.

When rock came in, I wasn't bitter about it. I was puzzled.

I had a very unusual contract. Most artists actually pay for their record dates and it comes out of their royalties. I paid for nothing.

Honestly, my favorite kind of dancing is just lettin' loose. There's something great about the carefree flinging of your body to great music. It can be so joyous.

A myth is a lie that conceals or reveals a truth. But if it reveals even a strand of history or truth, that's what gets my adrenaline going.

I am happy to the spokeswoman for this French youth that tomorrow will be spearhead new hope in the shape of the National Front.
