The writing of You've Got a Friend was one of the most incredible experiences because it was mostly inspiration. It just came to me almost as we hear it.

I'm really getting better at guitar. I'm not trapped behind a piano. You can get out and move with a guitar and still direct the band.

I went to London and performed in Eric Clapton's concert at the Royal Albert Hall. I'll work with him any time he asks me.

Today's records, even though they may be lyrically repetitive and not saying anything particularly heavy, they have energy.

I just want to give it all that I got. I just don't want to waste it.

That's one of the things I love about being a songwriter first, last and always, because whether I do it or not, if someone does a great job on it, my work is done.

I went to the High School for Performing Arts in New York for acting. I've studied it on and off for years and have done some theater and film.
