I used to write songs so fast like this, like snapping my fingers. Some of them didn't even have a title, for I just did the song.

We'd be singing crazy stuff — making up songs while we shot hoops just to goof around. What began as a hobby eventually became a newfound calling for the three of us.

Keith Richards uses a Telecaster, but he takes the sixth string off and tunes it to G. And that's what The Rolling Stones use all the time.

I'm not gonna try to defend, or undo what's been done. All I could say about whatever's been done, it's been done, and it's water under the bridge. I have no regrets of my life.

When you think of blues, all you think about is crying guitar like B.B. King's guitar. You think about someone crying that their woman's gone. And how bad life is and all that. Why can't it be something happy with the blues? Why can't it have a hip-hop beat to which you can do the dances of today ?
