I don't think there's any particular sound I do for every night. I try to get whatever sound suits the track best when we're recording, and I just look for something that sounds good when we're playing live. |
I enjoy co-writing. I've been co-writing for a long time now. I'm sure the pendulum will swing back to writing alone. For the moment I just enjoy working with someone else. |
I enjoy my money, and I'm not ashamed to admit it. I'd certainly rather be rich than poor. |
I felt that I needed an injection of freshness from another writer to make this a good, flowing, easy-to-listen-to album. So I elected to write with a very good friend of mine, Todd Sharp. The combination of the keyboard and guitar writing together was interesting. We're very compatible as writers. |
I find it hard to get excited by just a sound. I have to have a song there, then I'll find what used I can make of that sound within the song. |
I had been domestic before, in between Chicken Shack and joining Fleetwood Mac. John and I were married but never saw each other, since we were both in touring bands. When I left Chicken Shack, I stayed at home for a while. |
I haven't turned into some rich monster. I've kept my perspective. But I am a bit spoiled. It's hard not to be a little spoiled by having a lot of money. |
I like a light touch, a sensitive piano. My wrists aren't that strong, and if I have to hack too hard, they start breaking down. Fortunately, after playing something like that I take a break and have a drink, or move over to the accordion, or just stagger off the stage until my arms recover. |
I never have thought about a video while I'm writing. I've always been of the mind that music should be heard and not seen. It's a strange thing that's going on. I don't know if it's good or not. |
I still like to play the blues more than anything else. |
I was happily thinking I was retired. That is why I left Fleetwood Mac. |
I was in Tower Records in San Francisco a few weeks ago, buying some cassettes, and a couple of people recognized me and ran up with albums, and I just wanted to cover my face and have a seizure or something. I want people to just go away. |
I was without a boyfriend for along time. I wouldn't settle for going out on a date just for the sake of going out. I was perfectly content. I'd rather have that than a string of non-meaningful relationships. |
I was, in essence, boxed in completely by keyboards. That's what was wrong; I was so stacked in with keyboards I never used that no one could ever see me. It was like being in a prison... Mick and I would laugh about it, because he had the same sensation, being stuck behind his drums all night. |
I wasn't raised with money, so I had to get used to having it. I think I've adjusted to it pretty well. |
