I feel that after all those horrible reviews and jokes, I wasn't crazy all these years to stand up for the music I believe in. This album has proven that somewhere in the human race, the human heart is still racing and breaking and I am so grateful.

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.

QVC has been very good to me.

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

I never wanted to be a performer, that was not one of my goals. I wanted to be a musician and that was that.

Sneakers are not my thing.
