I stopped caring so much about what people might think if I sung about love and humanity.

We love it when we make mistakes that are better than something you could think up.

I stopped caring what people thought.

Even in the beginning, when we knew there was a legal argument about how much our song sounds like his song, as one songwriter to another, I wasn't sure that Cat Stevens would take that as bad.

Anyway, Cat Stevens is never going to make much money out of us.

I don't want anyone to think that I really am trying to overthrow the government with our music, or stop the war with our music ? that's just for fools.
