My fear is that I go up to the girl of my dreams and say 'I'm sorry, but I've got to say hello to you,' and she slides the stool back and gets up and walks away, saying, 'Not for me, Bub. I don't want anything to do with you.'

Have you ever loved somebody, loved her completely, but had to end the relationship for life reasons?

I feel my shows are like a late-night talk show that we settle down and do every night.

There's a constantly applicable nature to soul music, whereas sometimes pop music can be a periodical.

I hate being the heartbreaker. Hate it. If I date somebody and it doesn't work out, it's another nightmare for me.

It's very liberating when you finally realize it's impossible to make everyone like you.

Half of my heart’s got a grip on the situation, half of my heart takes time.
