Future Generations, Riding On The

What Is There To Be Afraid Of? The Worst Thing That Can Happen Is You Fail. So What? I Failed At A Lot Of Things. My First Record Was Horrible.

I've Never Fit In In Any Music World. I've Always Been An Outsider. I Mean, The Fact That I Live In Indiana - I Live In A Fly-over State... I'm Not Running Away From Anything, That's The Problem. Most People Go To Cities Because They Don't Like Where They Come From.

If Fans Are Going To Turn On Me Because Of This, They Weren't My Fans Anyway. I Couldn't Betray A Whole 25 Years Of Record Making And Not Do This. I Had To.

When You Live Life For Yourself It's Hard On Everyone. And That Hasn't Changed. For Me, If Anything, It's Gotten Worse.

Back In The '80s And '90s, When There Was Still A Record Business, There Was Pressure On Anyone Who Was Fortunate To Have A Few Hits On A Major Label To Continue That Success.
