Badlands, you got to live it everyday, let the broken hearts stand as the price you've got to pay.

When I first started in rock, I had a big guy's audience for my early records. I had a very straight image, particularly through the mid '80s.

I still like to go to record stores, I like to just wander around and I'll buy whatever catches my attention.

I think politics come out of psychology.

For me, President Obama is our best choice because he has a vision of the United States as a place where we are all in this together.

For me, once I count the band in, and I delve deep into my song, I feel a certain sort of integrity and integration that I rarely find in my daily life.

I'm a synthesist. I'm always making music. And I make a lot of different kinds of music all the time. Some of it gets finished and some of it doesn't.
