"I'm not god, I'm Jay."
Jay Gordon Quotes

"This isn't music designed for everyone. We like taking as many chances as possible, both in the studio and on stage. That's what makes it exciting. It's living life on the musical edge. If occasionally you crash and burn, you'll live with it. Luckily we haven't crashed that many times...and we're not planning on doing it at any point in the near future."

"No bands take the chance we do live, especially with technology. We don't use computers. My drummer will fire a loop off a pad, and it's all in time-and that's hard to do. We take a huge chance with it every night we go out on stage."

"What's important [to me] is that you give away all your emotion in the music."

"[our music is] a collection of short stories, stories about parents, stories about good relationships and stories about bad relationships, different ways of thinking and everything told in my rather abstract language."

"A lot of the lyrics aren't as negative as you might think. Downers aren't a part of this band. Uppers are more our style. Fuck being depressed, you know?"

"It's fantastic to be on a label run by musicians, not some guys in suits."

"...And here I am now, a singer in a crazy band."

"[About the lyric 'Turn down the voluptuous.'] That's what I felt that day. I was sick of the whole big-tittied striper vibe. I hate those big huge basketballs! I like a nice C-cup, right around that size. The double-Ds are a little too much!"

"I'm not a rock star, I'm a rock bright-light."

"It's still hard to tell the lady at the bakery that you're in a band called Orgy and keep a straight face."

"We have really cool fans."

"I was in a club in LA, a bit drunk, and a guy walked up to me, he was a gigantic drag queen, completely decked out, with, long nails, fake lashes, a dress, high heels. He, or maybe I should say she, walked up to me and asked me for my name, so I said 'I'm Jay.' He just looked at me and said 'My name's Candyass!' That was really something, you know. Somehow we thought it would be a perfect name for the album, even if it isn't at all about sex."

"It [our band name] has nothing to do with sex or any of that kind of stuff, not that we don't enjoy that kind of stuff."

"This is our last song. So we need you motherfuckers to make a lot of fucking noise!" (Family Values Tour)

"You gotta have a sence of humor to be in NSYNC."

"Let's not get into personal questions. I was born in San Francisco and that's as far as I'm going. There's got to be some mystique."

"Don't waste your fucking time: live, let go. We don't want to waste time having useless discussions, we would rather take that step forward and move on. 'Do what you must but do it!' Is our motto."

"A little culture never hurt anybody. I'm sick of the baggy clothes and bands walking around like Droopy The Fucking Clown. Let's tighten it up a bit! Make it look a little more stylish."

"We're quite normal, actually."

"Believe me, you wouldn't want to see me naked. Tell them we all have little dicks."

"Dicks do nothing for me, but women do wonders!"

"Somone's getting a bit happy with my ass back there!"

"As I walk through a field of daisies I feel so pretty."

"I wore more makeup than my mother."

"I was always a fashion bitch."

"When I got into the fourth grade I started kissing and got into girls with lots of lip-gloss. That's probably where I got my lip-gloss fascination from."

"I'm really into lingerie. Not a lot of it, just very faint bits."

"Groupies are cool."

"Oh yeah, and those other faggots in the band, Ry, Mir, Bob, Paige..You're all on restriction."

"I'll beat that whole band's ass single handedly."

"Bowie's, like, my favorite person in the entire universe."

"So what was the question again... oh yeah, bowling..."
