I feel pretty comfortable in a lot of different musical styles. I like rhythm, and I like melody and so forth.

I just found over the years that it's very hard to change people's perception of what it is that you do.

I got very famous for a minute and then it just all went away, you know? And for the last 20 years - you've got to pick yourself up and dust yourself off and then go on your merry way and start again, in a sense, and that's what I've been doing.

People say history is boring, and that is true because people are boring. We haven't changed since time began. We're still the same. We've obviously made some changes. When we started, it was all about food, clothing and shelter. Now we watch 'Top Chef', 'Project Runway', and 'Extreme Makeover: Home Edition.

You don't want to get worse at something.

I love going up the West Coast of the U. S. because it's one of my favorite parts of the world to tour.

Most people remember me for a couple of tunes.
