Whenever there was a choice between music and anything else, music won hands down every time.

For a Jewish guy, I've recorded a lot of Christmas albums.

Sneakers are not my thing.

Keep your family and old friends around you. That's what I had done and that's what saved my life when it came to being famous.

I think my music is like anchovies - some people like it, some people get nauseous.

Yeah, I'm old as the hills and you would think I'd be out to pasture someplace because I've done everything, but nothing has changed.

My hair was slicked down with a part. But that was before I discovered the blow-dryer. Now I'm fabulous.
