For me, the most trustworthy vehicle for spirituality had always proven to be music.

I feel wonderful because I see the love light in your eyes, and the wonder of it all is you just don't realize how much I love you.

In playing, I suppose my greatest gift was to express the way I felt or the willingness to express myself.

You can't mastermind everything. You'll go crazy. Just show up and play.

I remember when I thought of singing as the bit that went between the guitar playing - something I couldn't wait to get out of the way. Singing was originally like a chore that I didn't really enjoy.

Very much like that, and very much a loner, do you know and I didn't fit really into sport or all kind of group activities as a kid, I couldn't find a niche. And music was not really part of the kind of village curriculum it would, you know.

I think I deliberately sold out a couple of times. I picked the songs that I thought would do well in the marketplace, even though I didn't really love the song.
