I'm not a genius. I'm just a hard-working guy.

I still believe that something is right only when it feels right.

I'd earned over a million dollars by the time I was old enough to vote.

Surfing music is dead. It was just a summer craze for kids on the beach. I'm finished with it.

I believe that music is God's voice.

I listen to oldies but goodies stations, '60s and '70s music.

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.
