Then come and as we lay, beside this sleepy glade, there I will sing to you my Longfellow serenade.

My music is in young people's lives because it's so much a part of their parents' lives.

I don't pamper my voice. It's part of my body. If my body is rested and healthy, my voice is rested and healthy.

Fencing made me feel for the first time like a winner.

She got the way to move me, Cherry, she got the way to groove me.

I've found for the last couple of years that the things that I can become most deeply involved with are songs that reflect my real feelings about things and so that what I've been writing about.

I fell in love with folk music at Surprise Lake Camp. It was the songs of Woody Guthrie and the Weavers.
