Where´s my leadin´ lady? Let me try this new love scene on you, baby.
BOOTSY COLLINSWhere´s my leadin´ lady? Let me try this new love scene on you, baby.
BOOTSY COLLINSUsually when I’m out doing stuff, I’m just out in the wild, doing the wild thing. I don’t really get a chance to just chill out until I come here, in my creative space.
BOOTSY COLLINSYou have to get up and plant the seed and see if it grows, but you cant just wait around, you have to water it and take care of it.
BOOTSY COLLINSWell actually, we are working on the live album from the shows in Japan. I’m trying to get that finished.
BOOTSY COLLINSWe have given our creations more power than we have, and that to me is dumb.
BOOTSY COLLINSWe were brash young fellows. I was always hanging with the older crowd anyway. The musicians were the Hip Cats, and I was hanging with them anyway. I Just started out real early.
BOOTSY COLLINSSacred spirit of love, fall down on me from above.
BOOTSY COLLINSI try to bring it across on my record, in my dress, in what I do and what I say because to me humor is important. You should have a dose of that and I guess giving it is what I’m here for.
BOOTSY COLLINSI’d like to have younger people around me and that I’ll be involved with them a lot more now, as opposed to me being the main focal point.
BOOTSY COLLINSI like being out front, doing what I do, but then I also like playing in a band too. I’d like to do stuff like I did with Deee-lite. I went out and played with them and they were the stars, that was cool.
BOOTSY COLLINSYeah, because what it all boils down to is at the end of the day, we are all riding on the same boat and we have to learn how to deal with each other. I think that the music and what we do in our actions is what can kind of bring us together, hopefully.
BOOTSY COLLINSSkid marks all across my brain, cause you’re leaving me with so much pain. I was pretty sure that you could be the one, now it is evident that it was hit and run.
BOOTSY COLLINSWhen you’re used to playing with people, when you’re in a band, then you’re used to playing with each other. People nowadays aren’t used to playing with each other because they don’t have to.
BOOTSY COLLINSDuring the course of the day, I write things down, things I don’t do anything with. Then, when I get ready to start recording, I just look through my books and I see if I can find something that stands out. That’s how I come up with the off-the-wall-kinda-strange-indirect-stuff.
BOOTSY COLLINSMy brother was very important to me. And he played guitar. So that’s what I wanted to be. I wanted to be a guitar player. So he was the first one to inspire me to do something with my life. And I was so glad that he was there.
BOOTSY COLLINSI wanted to get my recording and become a musician again, work; with other people, do that kind of thing because I kind of got away from that for a while once we started happening, you know, selling records, sold out concerts.
