• It's not me, it's the songs. I'm just the postman, I deliver the songs.

They are still being passed around - the music and the ideas.

• For a long time I wasn't listening to music, to the rock and roll stuff on the radio, because it would cause me to get sweaty.

And if it was bad, I was furious 'cause I could've done it better.
