I have terrible hearing trouble. I have unwittingly helped to invent and refine a type of music that makes its principal proponents deaf.

All my concerts had no sounds in them they were completely silent. People had to make up their own music in their minds!

Beethoven can write music, thank God, but he can do nothing else on earth.

I think people need to have fun with whatever they're doing - makeup, their clothes, music, live shows - anything you don't need to take too seriously, don't take too seriously.

Rock 'n' roll music is what gets me off.
