I don't want to make niche-oriented music.

I was doing these performance art pop music pieces in the city. And they were a bit on the eccentric side I suppose. So people started to call me Gaga after the Queen song 'Radio Gaga.'

I just want to keep writing music.

I've always been suspicious of TV, I've always found music and video to be an unhappy marriage.

You know, the BBC had not been particularly generous in its deliverance of blues and esoteric kinds of music.

I realized that it's all really one, that John Lennon was correct. We utilize the music to bring down the walls of Berlin, to bring up the force of compassion and forgiveness and kindness between Palestines, Hebrews. Bring down the walls here in San Diego, Tijuana, Cuba.

When people in stadiums do the Wave, it's the group-mind collective organism spontaneously organizing itself to express an emotion, pass time, and reflect the joy of seeing the rhythms of many as one, a visual rhyming or music in which everyone senses where the motion is going.

Music is my shining light, my favorite thing in the world. T get me to stop doing it for one second would be difficult!

For me, great music doesn't just have to fall into one category or one genre and I love appreciating all kinds of music.

Music is the soundtrack to the crappy movie that is my life.
