To me, John Lennon and Elvis Presley were punks, because they made music that evoked those emotions in people.

I have been around for 35 years. I have met Elvis Presley, Elton John, John Lennon, all the Beatles. I have never ever seen anything like that and I hope I never will see it again. Michael was crushed.

A lot of the people I'd love to work with, like John Lennon, Elvis Presley, Buddy Holly, aren't alive, unfortunately.

Music is everybody's business. It's only the publishers who think people own it

I used to think it was mere homesickness, then I started getting it at home.

John Lennon was everything his friends wanted to be, and said everything they wanted to say but wouldn't dare. John Lennon always dared.
