If the timing's right and the gods are with you, something special happens.

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

Music is a 24-hour-a-day thing for me.

My first crush was Hayley Mills when I was a little kid in England. I used to kiss her picture goodnight.

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.

There will always be rock stars, but I don't know how much depth and longevity they'll have.

I've heard from writers and musicians and fans that they think I'm underrated.
