If you knew how meat was made, youd probably lose your lunch.

I grew up in cattle country-that's why I became a vegetarian. Meat stinks, for the animals, the environment, and your health.

I'm a singer and as long as I can sing - which, thank God, is something that I still seem to be able to do - I'd like to carry on making records.

Minimal is the word I'd use to describe how I live and dress, and it's also how I sing. I'm not a big fan of overemoting.

To dance is human, to polka is divine.

I wanted to write songs that would play themselves on stage, songs that sweep you through their current.

It was kind of easier for me to do records that didn't take a year or two years of my life to write and to make.
