Music is probably the only real magic I have encountered in my life. There's not some trick involved with it. It's pure and it's real. It moves, it heals, it communicates and does all these incredible things.

There goes your freedom of choice, there goes the last human voice.

God, it's so painful when something that's so close is still so far out of reach.

I'm not any happier anywhere than when I'm in the studio. I'm over the moon about it. It keeps me young, it keeps me feeling like I have some purpose.

Do something you really like, and hopefully it pays the rent. As far as I'm concerned, that's success.

I've always had a great love for the blues.

I'm so tired of being tired. Sure as night will follow day most things I worry about will never happen anyway.
