I always wrote the music first, and the music gave me the mood and the lyrics were pretty much put in to give you a map, where that mood came from and where it's going. But my first love was really the music itself, and I guess I've gone back to that.

I am no longer afraid of becoming lost, because the journey back always reveals something new, and that is ultimately good for the artist.

I sold my house to Jerry Seinfeld.

There will be other words some other day; that is the story of my life.

I hope it does not take the rest of my life until I find what it is I've been looking for.

My songs are like my kids.

Like family, we are tied to each other. This is what all good musicians understand.
