'If You Could Read My Mind' was written during the collapse of my marriage. It's a great song. No one has any gripes about it. I wondered what my wife and daughter might think. My daughter is the one who got me to correct 'The feelings that you lacked' to 'The feelings that we lacked'.

I once performed The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald to about 15 sea captains. The song was about a ship that broke in half and sank.

I don't know where we went wrong, but the feeling's gone and I just can't get it back.

I never got really good at hockey.

I'm not really a bird person or an Audubon guy who studies them, but as I was around them, they interested me.
