So many things can get you high, I'm gonna try them all just once before I die.

It's hard to say this about a guy like Eddie Van Halen, one of the greatest guitar players who ever lived, but he's really limited to a style and they're locked into it.

I loved that song ["Don't Tell Me"], but man, it was dark. That song did nothing for Van Halen.

I had more of a vocal range. If you wanted to play a keyboard song, like "Love Walks In," I can do it.

I'm a songwriter. I've got ideas in the closet that just didn't work out with my band, that I think, "This is a great idea, it's just the wrong guys."

The reason I didn't fly over from Maui at their beck and call is my wife was about to have a baby at any time. Those guys knew that. These guys would not compromise and meet me halfway.

It's a good thing I don't read everything Eddie says, or I'd be up in arms and not enjoying my life.
