मुझे नहीं लगता कि मैं संगीत के पास गई थी। मुझे लगता है कि संगीत मेरे पास आया था—या जब मैं इस दुनिया, इस धरती पर आई थी, तो यह संगीत मुझमें पहले से ही समाया हुआ था।
I don't think I came to music. I think music came to me - or was already embedded when I came into this sphere, this realm, this Earth.

यदि आप लोगों के चेहरों पर खुशी ला सकते हैं, तो आप उनके दिलों में बस जाते हैं। अब आप ऐसे लोगों से भी खुलकर बातचीत शुरू कर सकते हैं जिनसे शायद आप सामान्य परिस्थितियों में कभी बात नहीं करते।
If you can give people happiness, you're in their hearts. Now you can just start having conversations with people that you would not have had under other circumstances.

संगीत ने मेरी जान बचाई है। मेरा मतलब है, संगीत ही जीवन है। यह मेरे लिए सब कुछ है। इसी की वजह से मैं लोगों से मिल पाई—बचपन में मैं बहुत शर्मीली थी, लेकिन जब मैंने गाने लिखना और अपनी बहन के साथ जनता के सामने गाना शुरू किया, तो लोग मुझसे बात करने लगे, और इससे मुझे बहुत अच्छा महसूस हुआ। इस सफर का हर एक पहलू हमेशा सकारात्मक रहा है।
Music saved my life. I mean, music is life. It is everything to me. It's why I can meet people - I was so shy as a kid, and when I started to write songs and perform them with my sister in front of the public, people started to talk to me, and that made me feel really good. Everything about it has always been positive.

खुशी एक ऐसा माध्यम है जो सबको एक समान बना देती है। यह पानी की तरह है। आप दिल खोलकर खुशियाँ बाँटिए और फिर देखिए कि जीवन में कितनी बेहतरीन चीज़ें होती हैं।
Happiness is just a great equalizer. It's like water. You pour happiness liberally and all sorts of great things are going to happen.

मैं फिलीपींस से हूँ और वहाँ के लोग संगीत के बहुत शौकीन होते हैं। मेरा मतलब है कि दुनिया के सबसे बेहतरीन कवर बैंड मनीला से ही आते हैं!
I came from the Philippines and Filipinos are incredibly musical. I mean the best cover bands in the world come from Manila!

मेरा यह मानना है कि लोग वास्तव में सार्थक संगीत और गहरे शब्दों के लिए बहुत भूखे हैं, और मुझे लगता है कि लोग अब पीछे मुड़कर उन चीज़ों की सराहना करने के लिए तैयार हैं जो पहले आ चुकी हैं। और फिर एक ऐसा दौर भी आता है जिसे मैं सिर्फ नारीवादी (feminist) आंदोलन कहूँगी, क्योंकि मैं खुद एक नारीवादी हूँ। मुझे लगता है कि युवा लड़कियों और महिलाओं को इतिहास की जानकारी देने की शुरुआत हो चुकी है, और मुझे लगता है कि फैनी (Fanny) के बारे में जानकारी होना उसी का एक हिस्सा है।
I have this theory that people are actually really hungry for sonic space and understanding words, and I think that people are ready to look back and actually appreciate some of what came before. And then you really do have the entire movement that I'm just going to call feminist, because I am a feminist. I think the education of young girls and women about what came before has started and I think that the knowledge of Fanny is part of that.

कई मायनों में, हमें अपनी ज़रूरत की चीजें खुद ही ढूँढनी पड़ी थीं।
We had to be our own mothers of invention, in many senses of the word.

आप लड़कियों का कोई बैंड नहीं बना सकतीं! वे गर्भवती हो जाएंगी और कभी साथ टिक नहीं पाएँगी।
You can't have an all-girl band! They'll get pregnant, and they'll never stay together.

बैंड्स के बीच आपसी भाईचारा और मेल-जोल बहुत था। मुझे वह समय अच्छी तरह याद है जब मैं लॉरेल कैनियन (Laurel Canyon) में गाड़ी चलाकर जाती थी और फ्रैंक ज़प्पा (Frank Zappa) के घर के पास से गुजरते हुए देखती थी कि लोग बरामदे में बैठकर गिटार बजा रहे होते थे।
There was a lot of camaraderie among the bands. I remember a lot of times when I'd be driving up Laurel Canyon and pass by the house where Frank Zappa was living and I'd just see people out on the porch playing guitars.

सर्दियों के दिनों में मैंने लॉन्ग आइलैंड पर एक समर होम किराए पर लिया, लंबी सैर पर जाती थी, और आखिर में वुडस्टॉक रहने चली गई। वह संगीत के लिहाज से एक बहुत ही उर्वर समय और स्थान था, और मैंने वहाँ कई अलग-अलग संगीतकारों के साथ काम किया, जिसमें महिलाओं का संगीत भी शामिल था, और अंत में मैंने क्रिस विलियमसन के साथ भी प्रस्तुतियां दीं।
I rented a summer home in the winter on Long Island, I took long walks, and then I ended up moving to Woodstock. It was a fertile musical area and time, and I played with a lot of different musicians there, including getting into women's music, and I ended up playing with Cris Williamson.
