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 like to write when I feel I'm the real me.

You always want to feel you're not the only one going through something unpleasant.

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.

I do have a lot of deep religious iconography. I have crosses all over my house, and there's something very attractive about seeing nuns walking down the street. It's not a sexual thing for me; I know it is for some guys.

I got sick of playing husbands and boyfriends because there was nothing there.

I am a closet toy freak. I started chasing after some things as far as Star Wars toys - some very rare stuff.
