I think watching the TV news is bad for you. It is bad for your physical health and your mental health.

I want to be successful. Not just money. Just making a successful record and a successful show... I could feel successful without selling a million records.

I'm more interested in what I'm going to leave behind me than in making a big hit record. I've refined what I do for a long time. If getting better at it means it goes over the heads of those who only wanted to party, then so be it.

I'll stand my ground and I won't back down.

I started playing the bass because nobody else would play the bass, and then I got bumped up into singing because no one else really wanted to sing. So I learned how to sing and I wrote the songs, so I tended to get the most attention.

There was rock and roll across the dial, when I think of her it makes me smile.

Running down a dream... working on a mystery... going wherever it leads.
