I have a natural swagger.

There's the most resistance to an actor singing. It's like I'm being disloyal to my industry.

I always watch rushes. They give me a sense of whether I'm going in the right direction. You work hard and hopefully get encouragement from what you see.

I'd really like to get the girl, shoot the gun, drive the car, have fun. I even have these kind of action dreams, where I'm the action guy.

I don't create the movies I'm in. When it comes to music, it's my clothes, it's my guitar, it's my voice, it's my song.

I think of myself more as a workhorse actor. It will be hot and cold and up and down, but no one will kick me out of the business.

Before Footloose, the things I'd done weren't cute. In Diner I was an alcoholic.
