Adult life is dealing with an enormous amount of questions that don't have answers. So I let the mystery settle into my music. I don't deny anything, I don't advocate anything, I just live with it.
Rock music should be gross: that's the fun of it. It gets up and drops its trousers.
Nevertheless the passions, whether violent or not, should never be so expressed as to reach the point of causing disgust; and music, even in situations of the greatest horror, should never be painful to the ear but should flatter and charm it, and thereby always remain music.
In pop music, you say, 'You can do what you want to me.' Rock 'n' roll says, 'I'm gonna do what I want to you.'
When I'm on stage the savage in me is released. It's like going back to being a cave man. It takes me six hours to come down after a show.
If you really want to annoy me, ask me when I'm going to retire from rock n' roll.
No one gets teased for being a geek anymore- science is the new rock n roll
Turn on, tune up, rock out.
Disco is just pop music you can dance to.
If anyone asks you what kind of music you play, tell him 'pop.' Don't tell him 'rock 'n' roll' or they won't even let you in the hotel.
My God is rock'n'roll.
Music, you know, true music not just rock 'n' roll, chooses you.
Heavy metal drives me bonkers, it makes me want to vomit, heavy metal really is a pile of puke.
Music, Rock and Roll music especially, is such a generational thing. Each generation must have their own music, I had my own in my generation, you have yours, everyone I know has their own generation.
The future of rock n roll is Justin Bieber.
The only art I'll ever study is stuff I can steal from.
Rock 'n roll was born in the South, man. It's like saying rock-rock.
If you're a gay person I'd rather not be stuck in a lift with you.
I'm inspired by the words: 'electrifying', 'epic', 'minimalistic', 'transcendent', 'timeless' and 'rock n' roll.'
Through Kurt I saw the beauty of minimalism and the importance of music that's stripped down.
The way I feel about music is that there is no right and wrong. Only true and false.
I love to rock 'n roll. But my finest suit, of all the things I do, is as a songwriter.
Im more in love with Rock n Roll today than other things. It grows, you know?
Rock 'n' roll can be fun and dangerous at the same time.
I don't set trends. I just find out what they are and exploit them.
