I think they are grooming me as another Gary Cooper.

You are never really prepared for criticism.

I have a huge ego and a huge inferiority complex at the same time.

When you are in your 20's and 30's, you just want a hit record and you don't really care how it happens

I'm Mr Boring, not a party-goer at all.

I would be content if I had nothing but a tape-recorder. I could still write songs and record them

I love making records; I love making music; I love writing songs.
