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

You like to think that it's something you created, but secretly you know that you had some kind of help, or somebody gave this to you.

Songwriting is different from music, although I don't deny now that it would be nice to have a little more background in music theory.

I think I need to be married. Having a wife and family makes some sense out of all that I do, because I can't make any sense out of 20,000 adoring fans watching me for two hours.

I communicate with fans on Twitter. I enjoy the ability to impulsively write something and ship it out to the fans and fellow tweeters out there.

While the sun God will may your day, sing as a song in search of a voice that is silent, and the one God will make for your way.

Chelsea Morning is a great Joni Mitchell song and I guess I'm partial to her lyrics because they show me a slightly different perspective on life.
