real abuse way
The more reality we face, the more we realise that unreality is the main programme of the day. The more real we become, the more abuse we take, so it does radicalise us in a way, like being put in a corner. But it would be better if there were more of us.
wisdom way want
We want to go forward, but which way are we facing?
light magic way
The magic of the music seems to light the way.
hurt back-when way
I know I hurt you then But that was way back when.
i-hate-you way tweak
How can I go forward when I don't know which way I'm facing?
people different way
In one way, I was always hip. I was hip in kindergarten. I was different from the others. There was something wrong with me, I thought, because I seemed to see things people didn't see. I always saw things in a hallucinatory way.
stones way records
You see, we're influenced by whatever's going. Even if we're not influenced, we're all going that way at a certain time. If we played a Stones record now - and a Beatles record - and we've been way apart, you'd find a lot of similarities. We're all heavy. Just heavy.
moving guitar way
I'm really very embarrassed about my guitar playing, in one way, because it's very poor. I can never move but I can make a guitar speak.
perhaps-love looks way
I'm not going to change the way I look or the way I feel to conform to anything.
important way taught
The women are very important too, we can't have a revolution that doesn't involve and liberate women. It's so subtle the way you're taught male superiority.
round turned walked
I would have turned round right then and walked away.
band
We were a band who made it very, very big. That's all.
buy care money
I don't care too much for money, money can't buy me love.
found
What can I tell you about myself that you have not already found out from those who do not lie?
