I'd rather play a few nights at the Fillmore than play one night at an arena.

I am trying to get right with God. I'm sort of making a statement about the excessiveness.

You can't really praise somebody's work and then criticize the process.

I'm an artist first and foremost. So things are gonna go up and down and sideways and whichever way all through life.

Of course, Im older now. Im in a different place in my life than when I wrote the songs for Car Wheels or Essence or whatever. Different things were going on.

Some of their best songs don't have bridges and choruses. So that made me think I should trust my instincts. My songs were okay, I figured. I didn't need to change anything.

I don't mean to complain. I wouldn't trade my life for anything.
