Well, in Japan, I have got a group of musicians that I have worked with a lot, that concentrate just on the hardcore stuff, say, that Naked City has been working on. We have like a repertoire of sixty songs now.

I have a very beautiful life with great friends and I look forward to waking up every day. Every day is a vacation but every day is a workday. I don't want to take vacations because music is my life and if I escape from music, that's the same thing as death. So a vacation is death to me. Sitting on the beach for a week is my idea of hell. That would kill me.

I'm not a practicing kabbalist. I'm not a spiritual master. I'm not a rabbi. I don't - but it's part of who I am.

I have wit in my work and a sense of humor, but I do not use irony in any way

Eye was a great discovery. He is one of the great vocalists of all time.

I see myself and many artists like me as the torchbearers through these dark ages.

And I try to be as diplomatic as I can, but it always ends up being a psychodrama up there on stage.
