My wife and I have built trust with our children and have always had open communication.

I don't know any musician, successful or otherwise, that got in it to make money. Or writer, for that matter. You get into it because you love it.

I think we shape God in our own image a lot of the time.

You're always searching for the thing to heal you, and I thought therapy would give me that. But it didn't - it just helps you recognize your demons.

They were marketing me as a teen idol, when the stuff on the record was not what teen idols were doing at the time.

I can't imagine that anybody is as screwed up as I am.

I get inspired at different times and in different ways.
