I've never walked into a restaurant, asked for a table and been told, 'We're full.'

I'm getting to a point where everything is becoming streamlined in my life. I'm learning how to stand onstage for two hours and play in front of thousands of people as if I am completely in the moment every moment.

People want to see musicians sing things that come from their own mind and own heart in real time, responding to the moment for them.

I am not in 'Us Weekly.' I'd have to be going out with someone who is in there to be in there myself.

Who says I can't be free from all of the things that I used to be?

My hits are not hits.

This is not to say, there never comes a day I'll take my chances and start again. And when I look behind on all my younger times, I'll have to thank the wrongs that led me to a love so strong.
