I am a musician. My passion for music has obliterated everything in its path for my entire life. Whenever there was a choice between music and anything else, music won hands down every time. No one person or material thing could ever come close to the feeling I get when the music is right.

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

The public needs to know - they need to know as much about atrial fibrillation as they do about cancer and diabetes.

My goal was always to be involved in music that would outlive me. And maybe that's actually happening.

QVC has been very good to me.

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.

To write a love song that might be able to make it on the radio, that is something that is terrifying to me. But I can definitely write a song about that chair over there. That I can do, but to sit and write a pop song out of the clear blue sky, that is very difficult and I admire the people that can do it.
