When it comes to me, I just write the most beautiful music I can, I do the best work I can, and then I hand it out there.

Here's proof that if you live long enough, anything is possible.

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.

First of all, I've been having a wonderful run of luck with cover albums, songs I didn't write. I had five pop cover albums and two Christmas albums, and they were all very successful.

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

I've always wanted to marry Elton John.

Everybody has to find out: who are you? What do you believe in?
