I think in terms of emotions. And feelings. So sometimes what I say may not always be clear. But creatively, there's a lot to be said for that way of thinking.

I meditate and I also think about meditation. Which is funny. I think about Maharishi, about just the idea of meditating. It gives me something.

The idea of taking a song, envisioning the overall sound in my head and then bringing the arrangement to life in the studio...well, that gives me satisfaction like nothing else.

I'm happy; I'm a happy person.

I was very, very financially secure my whole life. I have been very lucky to say that.

So it's 1976 and we're still riding on our past success. I mean I've gone on like that for I don't know how long.

Love and mercy that's what you need tonight. Love and mercy to you and your friends tonight.
