changing few good music sat seemed step sure time
I sat out a few years because I wasn't really sure what I wanted to do next. So many things were changing in music and in culture, so it seemed like a good time to step back.
launch meet ready sure whether
We just want to be sure that we're in a position, whether it's Boeing ( BA ) or ULA, to meet their launch requirements. We want to be sure they are there and ready to go when they need the capability.
ad deliberate marketing power sure time
The marketing of XP is very deliberate and conscious. Part of it is in co-opting the power of the media; I make sure I'm newsworthy from time to time. Part is in co-opting some of my publisher's ad budget.
cab care choke driver home hotel mean pay send sure wherever
We send them home with a responsible party, and that doesn't mean a cab driver or a hotel room. You need someone who can take care of you and make sure you don't choke on your own vomit, not someone who will drive wherever you pay them to.

influenced might stuff wacky
I have heard some stuff that might be influenced by my records, but it's usually pretty wacky and off-the-wall, which is kind of annoying, to be frank.
certain human meditate
You can't meditate on walking or certain human habits. You concentrate too much on the way you walk, and you'll start walking pretty weird.
music pressure
There's never any pressure on the music having to be something.
age felt people
I didn't go to high school. I never felt connected to people my age.
elitist performing related
The cliche of what a rock star is - there's something elitist about it. I never related to that. I'm an entertainer. I think of it as, you're performing for people. It's not a self-glorification thing.
bad entire gave hit license people publishers rapping sampling songs taking
There are a lot of people who really abused sampling and gave it a bad name, by just taking people's entire hit songs and rapping over them. It gave publishers license to get a little greedy.
