Dance music doesn't care where you live. It doesn't care who your friends are. It doesn't care how much money you make. It doesn't care if you're 74 or if you are 24 because... 74 is the new 24!

In film, I was surprised when I first saw the movie 'Drive.' I said, 'Oh, God. It sounds great - I love it. Wow, this could be the soundtrack from 'American Gigolo' or 'Cat People.' But I'm surprised that the director would agree with a composer to write that kind of sound.

The disco sound, you must see, is not art or anything so serious.

My music was typically continental - nothing like, say, The Beatles.

Phil Ramone is very special. Barbra Streisand or Diana Ross... they are the best.
