I will be the focal point for however long I decide to play. Half of me likes that idea and half of me doesn't, but once the adrenaline kicks in, I'll probably really enjoy it.

I like their darkness but I also like the pop-side of the Velvet Underground.

I tend to like songs that are very emotional, that strike a chord with me emotionally.

I'm not advocating violence but I think somebody should shoot Simon Cowell.

All of my kids are into music. My older daughter plays guitar, piano, sings. My young son, he sings.

When I write love songs, people think they're really soppy - but I see love as a consolation for the boredom of life.

I don't like to think 10 years down the road.
