I didn't want to be treated like a 'star.' I fought it constantly, and I think I was rude.

I was always into the music. Music, in general, saved my life. But the fame part... I would look up, see what was going on around me, the reporters and photographers and all, and then I would just go back to making my music.

My style of music is the great American songbook meets the pop world of the Seventies and Eighties.

The melody seems to have gone to the country. The country music seems to still have melody and interesting lyrics. But pop music, you've got to really listen hard to somebody who's doing a good melody and a good lyric.

Every few years, I go back into all the songs and I update them so that it never sounds like an oldies show. If you come to the shows, they're full of muscle. 'Copacabana' sounds like it could have been released yesterday.

There's just no quiet in Vegas.

Misfits aren't misfits among other misfits.
