song emotional together
For a song cycle to work, you have to feel these things when you hear them and you either have an emotional reaction to it or you don't. The plotline is something that gets woven together in the back-story.
girl mom hurt
I can see how the young girls really get hurt when their moms are critical, or vice versa when they're overly critical of their moms. It can be so painful.
inspirational dance real
This was a time frame when dance music and clubs were having a real impact on culture, and it had an impact on me.
vintage pressure phenomenal
There is a phenomenal amount of pressure on women in this industry: they are considered vintage by the time they hit their mid-30s.
listening way routine
There are ways to stimulate being prolific, and part of that is making pilgrimages, and being open to listening, changing up the routine.
father church ability
My father was strict, but he recognised my ability and got a lot of flak from the church for supporting me.
artist careers people
People assume that all artists make for terrible business people, but I'm in complete charge of my own career.
half world needs
Right now, half the world is depressed and they need to be entertained.
player piano singers
After a while, though, you realize that a whole slew of young singer-songwriter piano players are getting compared to you. That's when you feel the passage of time is occurring.
jobs father gay
So the first job that I got - my father got it for me - he had his clerical collar on, was a gay bar in D.C., it was Mr. Henry's of Georgetown.
doors world pops
The pop world has really opened its doors.
feelings world safe
The world that we all knew before, could wake up in feeling safe... now it seems that everything has been turned upside down.
mother rocks scary
There are enough scary rock & roll mothers in the world.
hands trying records
I produce the records. I don't hand over control to some really expensive producer who then talks to the record company and then tries to bend me to their will - for commercial purposes.
