My Fans Are The Best

I Am A Writer - That Is What I Am Before Being A Performer Or Musician. I Love Waking Up In The Morning And Then Going To Sleep That Night With Something That Did Not Exist.

I'm Not Thinking About What Needs To Be On The Radio. I'm Not Thinking About Anything Other Than - I'm Just Going To Let This Music Come Out Of Me And Not Have Any Sort Of Preconceived Notion Of What I Should Do. I'm Just Going To Do It.

I Grew Up In A Time Where Anything Was Possible.

I Used To Play Pianos In Bars. You Know In Hotels, You'd See Guys Playing Piano With A Snifter? That Was Me, With A Painted-on Mustache. I Was About 15.

I Wanted To Put Jazz On The Record, All The Loves Of Music That I Had On The Record, So I Could Show People I Was Ahead Of My 19 Years. It May Have Been Over The Heads Of Some People.
