I don't want to mix the identities. Noah Drake isn't Rick Springfield.

Being a songwriter does not rely on an audience or other band members or a camera. I can just sit in a room and write songs.

Puberty hit me very hard, and I basically had no use for school once I discovered the guitar.

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

I've been writing songs since I was 14 years old, and that's my true love.

God has spoken to me differently through my life, and it has gotten better as I've gotten older. I don't know if that's my reception or his maturing.

I've never said, 'I'm squeaky clean.' It's always the people who project that image that are hiding something. No one's squeaky clean.
