I'm going to keep on keeping on as long as I've got my health and strength, and God gives me that will to do it.

This album [Give the People What They Want] has almost been in the making for almost three years now. When we first began on it, my mother was sick. When she passed away, I got on stage and played that night. The music helped take me away.

You know a man can play the part of a saint just so long for a day comes when his true, his true self unfolds.

I really can't wait to dance with Ellen DeGeneres!

I can't eat processed food.

My friend Megan Holken is a nutritionist. I have spent some time at her home upstate in Sharon Springs, where she told me how to eat right and cook right.

I'm blessed to be in an environment where people are sincere.
