You might not feel like playing pretty all the time. Instead, you might want to play something nasty....you might want to play something out of context with the tune. It might be a note that creates so much tension it becomes unpleasant, but you want it to sound that way.

Love songs are one of the great essences of life, the only thing thats lasting.

My whole career from the early 70s on has been mind-blowing. I didn't imagine in my life that I would ever be considered a guitar player first of all because I started off as a singer.

Never give up on a good thing, never give up, never give up!

I have been doing music all my life so everyday when I get up I expect music will be part of it.

I like Simon Cowell - look at how many great artists have come out of the U.K. because of him.

The first time I tried to sing along with my guitar, everybody in the studio booed. They all said it wouldn't work.
