Quote of the day

It takes people a little longer to get in to you when you have a distinct sound - especially if you're not force-feeding singles to pop radio.

They look for sequences and they look for reasons, and certain periods of history don't fit with the general pattern of 1500 to the 20th century, during which there's the creation of the United States.
