I have to believe that somebody up there thinks I've still got some work to do.

Teacher, there are things that I don't want to learn.

The word that pisses me off - "prepubescent."

Basically I see that song as a bunch of images which I threw together to represent the fact that I was seeing one girl and then I started seeing another, and it was just the guilt in between those two periods. The ballads I've written since have been about things that really hurt me.

There are very few things in my life that I can't have if I want them. So when I see something that I can't have, immediately I'm obsessed by it.

My American gay audience have continued to dance and sing to the music I make in a way that straight Americans haven't. I am grateful to them for that.

You can have my credit card, baby, but keep your red hot fingers off of my heart, lady.
