I hope to find the perfect band as well, I really do, and I'm working very hard to find that band.

I also plan to release a ballads collection.

In my opinion I do not think I am a better guitarist than Ace, I honestly think we're both different, and we both brought something unique to the musical.

I have no plan to retire anytime soon, although remember I am 50 years old!

I agree with you about the music of today. It lacks style and emotion.

I miss the 80's as well, it was a truly great decade for music.

Soon I will be doing what I love again.

The Border Ballads, for instance, and the Robin Hood Ballads, clearly suppose a state of society which is nothing but a very circumscribed and not very important heroic age.

I'd like to do a pop album with an R and B influence. I definitely want to have those big ballads with the uptempo hits as well.

Even on the most serious ballads, I'll throw in a tongue-in-cheek remark.

In Van Halen there were moments, like in some of the ballads, I put my heart and soul into those records. Those lyrics when I sang 'em, I gave myself goosebumps.

In nearly all ballads, the words set the mood and meaning, while the music intensifies or enhances them.

I also plan to release a ballads collection.

Some of my other heroes around that time were, oddly enough, Frank Sinatra, Nat Cole and people like that - I was always more inclined to listen to ballads.

I have always been a sucker for ballads, but you have to be careful these days, you can't overload people.

The British ballads became a new kind of form in their hand. And out of them came the blues, a new kind of song of commentary and satire, a song form which, after all, has become the main musical form of the whole human species.

My favorite type of music to sing is definitely those big ballads, I just love doing those power ballads.

True popular ballads are the spontaneous products of nature.

I think that ballads are always something where I can really become one with the audiance.

I was kind of known as a ballad singer. People would send ballads. Some of them would go over my shoulder and float off the top of my head, and I just didn't feel anything. Then I would hear a song that would absolutely shake me.

I like to sing ballads the way Eddie Fisher does and the way Perry Como does. But the way I'm singing now is what makes the money.

And when power ballads come back, we'll get big hair again.

When we do R&B midtempos or ballads, there's an Underdogs sound.

And that's just what I'm saying. I would never want to be like certain people, who change the way they dress, go out in disguise, wear a big floppy hat and dark shades. I would hate that.

Journalism constructs momentarily arrested equilibriums and gives disorder an implied order. That is already two steps from reality.

No one is an environmentalist by birth. It is only your path, your life, your travels that awaken you.

The circus allows one to be logical and unreal at the same time. In the circus, all is possible: there can be a man with two heads or a character with a green face.

To me I'm just a regular person going to the mall with friends, and now I'm in Forever 21 and I see this random group of girls staring at me and taking pictures. But now I usually have my dad, who is a really tall and intimidating person with me, so he's kind of my bodyguard.

When someone hears that I've written a book about 1897, I'm usually met with blank stares. And the first thing they say is, 'Was there even an L.A. back then?' A lot of people don't even think there was a city before the movies appeared. That concept of Los Angeles is so strong in the popular imagination that celebrity overrides everything.

Contrary to popular belief, there are actually quite a few guys in the action sports community that have faith and are Christians.

Nothing truly convincing - which would possess thoroughness, vigor, and skill - has been written against the ancients as yet; especially not against their poetry.

We are presented with a unique situation in the black community in that we have embraced the beauty of hip hop, the real rawness of it, the real fun of it, but we also have to address the damage it has done. We have to look at what it's done to our black girls, especially when it comes to domestic violence.

Weddings are really good for making you feel terrible about yourself if you're not where you want to be in life.

My first novel was turned down by half a dozen publishers. And even after having published five or six books, I wasn't making enough money to live on, and was beginning to think I'd have to give up the dream of being a full-time writer.

In high school and college, I gathered a number of medals for marksmanship, but I have long since abandoned this activity, having concluded that the world would be a better place with fewer sharpshooters.

My point is that, over the years, I've taught five thousand people acting and lately I have a lot of energy on these kids, having the same break I had as a high school girl.

To be sure, we would not allow the world, if we can help it, to peep into our soul, much less to enter it. Our No-Man's-Land is hedged about with a wire entanglement of insincerities. And often we take refuge in a temperament, a pose, or a mystic mood.

I went to a Christian high school, so I went under my middle name. I don't think they would have accepted me in the school - 'This is Rebel'... so I have two middle names, Melanie Elizabeth, and I went under those. But Rebel's way cooler.

Our goal is very simply to become the desktop for e-businesses.

Occasionally if you do something extraordinary, the crew responds with spontaneous applause, but that's very rare.

I'm at a little loss in terms of my Leave It To Beaver expertise, since I never watched an episode of the show - so the cast in the pilot could have been Martians or they could have been the regular cast for all I know.

I used to be neurotic. I didn't like myself very much. But somewhere in my mid-40s, my neuroses stopped seeming so important. I developed a sense of humor.

You can't buy time or save it, common idioms notwithstanding. You can only spend it.

Hungry people cannot be good at learning or producing anything, except perhaps violence.

I'm not that into reading. If I'm gonna read, I'm gonna read some cool sci-fi book or something, not some stupid self-help book.

Falling in love-you should go with it, regardless of whether or not your heart gets smashed. You'll be a better person.

I generally will answer any question about anything.
