We are living in a time when American popular music is finally being recognized as one of our most successful exports. The demand is huge.

I'm writing for the sake of writing music. Whether it gets heard or not isn't an issue for me. It keeps my own juices going and my mind active.

If I ever reach heaven I expect to find three wonders there: first, to meet some I had not thought to see there; second, to miss some I had expected to see there; and third, the greatest wonder of all, to find myself there.

You've got to be hard, like the rock in that old rock & roll.

I'm single but interviewing.

I once believed in causes, too. Had my pointless point of view. Life went on no matter who was wrong or right.
