Much Of Songwriting Is Simply

I Was Eating In A Chinese Restaurant Downtown. There Was A Dish Called Mother And Child Reunion. It's Chicken And Eggs. And I Said, I Gotta Use That One.

When I First Heard Elvis Perform "bridge Over Trouble Water" It Was Unbelivable,and I Thought To Myself, How The Hell Can I Compete With That?

I Don't Feel Any Pressure From Fans. But I'm Always In Some Kind Of State Of Emotional Turmoil. I Would Not Describe Myself As Happy-go-lucky. That's Not To Say That I'm Not Happy.

I'm Always Going Forward Toward Something, And That Something Is Usually An Album, Because I Like To Record. I Probably Like To Record More Than I Like To Write.

A Lot Of Talent Is A Gift, But A Lot Is Also Luck. I'm Very Aware Of That. I Was Born In The Right Place At The Right Time. I Am Also Blessed Because I've Never Been A Sex Symbol. I'm Spared The Embarrassment Of Acting Young.
