I think that if people realize that with an mp3, you're only getting five percent of the sound that's there. But when you hear the entire thing... I think it would save the music business. It's such a drastic change.

I think Sean Parker damaged the music business with Napster.

If you think the music business is the be-all and end-all of life, you're in big trouble.

You shouldn't be in the music business if you're posing.

Making a record? You've got to have the song, then you create a record. I think it's the same with a live performance. If the material is strong, you're already 90% there. I always tell young people it's all about the music, the songs. Work on the songs, work on the songs, work on the songs.

I think musicians and artists are the most philanthropic people I know. Their charity record of the music business would hold up to the work of anybody.
