I'm in total control. I write the songs, decide what to sing and how to sing. I even control the recording process. But, with a film, there is no control at all.

I actually write more on guitar than I do on piano.

If I make a record I love, then somebody will like it. Maybe not everybody, but that won't matter.

You know, when you have a father who's pretty well known but you don't see him, the last thing you want to do is start talking about him all the time to people.

Your limitations create your sound.

You would never catch me in a miniskirt.

I used to be a jazz snob, believe it or not. I sort of turned my nose up at anything more commercial.
