Your current release strategy is very idiosyncratic. Are you the pioneer of a new system?

It’s organically based in the sense that I’m somewhere between adhering to the rules of the artist heart, which is, “I wanna do what I wanna do when I wanna do it,” and then the marketplace, which is moving very fast and you have to be adaptable. You cannot plan for two years.

Look at someone who’s a brilliant and talented person: Christina Aguilera. Two years away, does the big buildup for the record, record comes out, critics pan it, “Oh, it’s like Lady whatever,” and everything’s blown up for her — overnight. You can’t make that kind of investment as an artist anymore. I think it’s too much, as we say in the business, downside. I can’t ride the Twitter wave, is what I’m saying.

I saw that Eminem sampled a song of yours ['Reaching Out,' with Queen], and Christina Aguilera covered ‘All Right Now.’

I thought Christina Aguilera’s version of ‘All Right Now’ was absolutely rocking. I loved it. I’ve heard some people do that, and, eh, you know — it’s quite hard to pull off, really. But she gave it some stick. It was good.

It was interesting, the Eminem thing, because it wasn’t quite what I had planned. When we were touring, they tossed around a version of that song and how they planned to sample it. And it was very different to the final result. I wasn’t actually crazy about the final result, in all honesty. I never use foul language onstage or on records. It’s just not my thing. I do like Eminem, and I think he has a very credible point and lots to say, but he does it in a different way than I would ever do.
