Yeah, we appreciate our women followng...and I love women. I mean, I just really love women. I love men, too, but you know it's like sometimes you look up from what you're doing and you go, 'I love women.' There's just something about them and so, just celebrate it.

But if you want to be a songwriter-based musician, whether you play punk or rock or country or jazz, whatever, you have to work on your songwriting and you have to work on being able to play in front of people, I think. That performance is how you create the groundwork for a lasting career.
Amy Ray
I don't typically work that late into the night in a studio, I'm more productive during the day.
Amy Ray
I'm not really thinking about what I'm talking about or what I'm willing to achieve. I'm just kind of letting it come out, recording it.
Amy Ray
It's important to have a voice it's more important to use it.
Amy Ray
I think you just have to take the bad with the good and you're going to get hurt more, but it's worth it.

Music is such a good way to resist. It keep you strong, it has dignity.
Amy Ray
