I'm doing good. I've had a slight nervous breakdown in the '60s. I got through that. And I got through the '70s. And I was in a doctor's program during the '80s and then I met Melinda and we've been together ever since. I've got a happy life.

Summer means happy times and good sunshine. It means going to the beach, going to Disneyland, having fun.

I earned my famous name.

I consider myself to be a crusader of love. I try to spread love around the world as best I can because I know I have a handle on love.

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

I have stage fright every single concert I've ever done. I have at least four or five minutes of it. It's absolute living hell.

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.
