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 believe in my writing.

I've been up, down, trying to get the feeling again. All around, trying to get the feeling again. The one that makes me shiver, made my knees start to quiver.

Touring is a young man's game, but after 30 years of it, I want to stay home.

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

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