There is absolutely no doubt that the extraordinary Donna Summer belongs in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.

O Death, rock me asleep, bring me to quiet rest, let pass my weary guiltless ghost out of my careful breast.

Thank you for the music, Sleater-Kinney. This gang of three was the best American punk rock band ever. Ever.

Hip hop is doing the new rock thing; there are no rules. They can do anything, really. And that's inspiring.

Rock 'n Roll: The most brutal, ugly, desperate, vicious form of expression it has been my misfortune to hear.

Mick Jagger can't even make a successful solo album, and the Stones are the biggest rock group that ever was.

I became producer so that I could work with persons like him and to rock the world of Hong Kong Cinema a bit.

Being in a rock band, I feel a certain responsibility to have a weird haircut. I mean, who else gets to do that?

You literally cannot deny the fact that rock and roll was born because of blues, and blues is black man's music.

I grew up in the 1950s at the beginning of rock n' roll, and would strum a tennis racket in front of the mirror.

I grew up on rock and roll like My Chemical Romance, who were actually genuinely talking about and saying things.

I have a saying, which is, 'Crazy is good for business.' I think rock and roll really is about being a bit crazy.

My uncles listened to rock and roll like Led Zeppelin. We had MTV, so I saw Adam Ant and Boy George and Def Leppard.

We play rock & roll, but we swing when we play. We want that ongoing flow, that lightness, that forward rush of jazz.

Ever since the beginning of rock and roll, there's been an Axl Rose. And it's just boring. It's totally boring to me.

As a rock star, I have two instincts, I want to have fun, and I want to change the world. I have a chance to do both.
