Gospel songs to me are about the mansion in the sky, and washed in the blood of Christ's crimson blood, songs that are filled with biblical wording that's no longer understood by a lot of people.

I can't improve on how the Bible expresses itself, so I don't even try.

I never felt part of the Christian industry.

My music was too religious for the rock and roll stores and too rock and roll for the religious stores.

The Beatles said 'all you need is love,' then they broke up.

Only in a concert situation do I have access to people directly to preach to them, and I don't believe that the bigger your platform is, the more people will pay attention.

I never sent promotional copies to Christian radio stations in my life. It's not what I'm interested in.
