Everybody has weird dreams, but a usual weird dream is, okay, so your mom's driving a car and she's a dog.

I had written lyrics to a song called The Silent Extreme, which Alex later renamed Humans Being.

To stay a great singer or guitar player, you've got to do it 24/7. That's what I do.

If you don't ever stop singing, your voice stays in shape. It's like the marathon runner. You've got to run, run, run to stay in shape.

Yeah, yeah, I've been Beatled, I've been Rolling Stoned.

Those are the magical songwriting moments, when you have a partner that clicks like that. That's a dream come true, man.

In Van Halen there were moments, like in some of the ballads, I put my heart and soul into those records. Those lyrics when I sang 'em, I gave myself goosebumps.
