The fact that people still know us is, in my opinion, a result of our music and of the big money that runs the music industry today. The people who control the industry are accountants who recycle everything in new, nostalgic packages, and everything else, to make more money. ↗

Europe has a press that stresses opinions; America a press, radio, and television that emphasize news. ↗
