The blues ain't nothing but a good man feelin' bad.

Who told you I was a musician?

I extract what I consider the best material from different sources. But often the material I perform comes from a very strange location in history, which are minstrel shows.

I'm sad and blue, about nobody but you. I told you that I loved you right from the start, you told me the same and now you try to break my little heart.

The only thing that interests me is history - reviewing the past and making something out of it.

Lonesome. Lonesome. I know what it means. Here all by my lonesome, dreaming empty dreams. Weary. Weary at the close of day, wondering if tomorrow brings me joy or sorrow.

I've got a very behind-the-scenes personality. I don't know how I became a performer. I like to stay discreet, out of the public eye, very low-key.

The silence between the notes is the good part for me. I find that to be a very important part of music that is often lacking.

It can even be a single note which defines the entire song.

What I do and what I record only work for the moment.

Poetry involves the mysteries of the irrational perceived through rational words.

It comes with it, this is my work and all the media thing is just a big bonus for me. I'm just enjoying being in the spotlight right now so it's not a big deal for me.

We've got nothing to lose, and there's no point losing this game

Her son lives. He has her eyes, precisely her eyes. You remember the shape and color of Lily Evans's eyes, I am sure?

It wasn't so much that I was afraid of the place itself, but I was afraid of the creatures who masqueraded as people.

I might enjoy being an albatross, being able to glide for days and daydream for hundreds of miles along the thermals. And then being able to hang like an affliction round some people's necks.

BEAST is very happy because of B2UTIES.. Thank you those who love and care for us.
