Janis Joplin Sings The Blues As Hard

A Lot Of Times I Say To Myself, "i Wished I Could Be Worthy Of All The Compliments That People Give Me Sometimes." I'm Not Inventing Anything That's Going To Stop Cancer Or Muscular Dystrophy Or Anything, But I Like To Feel That My Time And Talent Is Always There For The People That Need It. When Someone Do Say Something Negative, Most Times I Think About It, But It Don't Bother Me That Much.

The Beautiful Thing About Learning Is Nobody Can Take It Away From You.

Nobody Loves Me But My Mother, And She Could Be Jivin' Too.

It Seems Like I Always Had To Work Harder Than Other People. Those Nights When Everybody Else Is Asleep, And You Sit In Your Room Trying To Play Scales. I Just Wonder Where I Was When The Talent Was Being Given Out, Like George Benson, Kenny Burrell, Eric Clapton ... Oh, There's Many More! I Wouldn't Want To Be Like Them, You Understand, But I'd Like To Be Equal, If You Will.

He Was Jimi Hendrix! He Didn't Sound Like Anybody Else But Himself. He Was Like Charlie Parker In His Way Of Playing, He Played Well, He Was A Person That Made Waves. When You Heard Jimi Hendrix You Knew It Was Jimi Hendrix, He Introduced Himself In His Instrument... You Know, Many Radio Stations Play Records And A Lot Of The Times They Don't Call Out The Names Who You Just Listened To, But When They Play Jimi Hendrix, You Don't Have To Tell Me, [you Know] It's Jimi Hendrix.
