That's the motivation of an artist - to seek attention of some kind.

It's probably foolish to expect relationships to go on forever and to say that because something only lasts 10 years, it's a failure.

I find it a lot healthier for me to be someplace where I can go outside in my bare feet.

I was a huge Beatles fan. We could talk about who I listened to growing up and what my sources were, but certainly the Beatles were a late, important resource for me, and I just took my guitar and a handful of songs, and I decided, well, I'll just go over and travel around Europe and see what comes of it.

I'm glad about what's happening to the music business. This last crop of people we had in the 90s, who are going away now, they didn't like music. They didn't trust musicians. They wanted something else from it.

I have a love-hate relationship with the Grammys because I don't see the music world as a competitive sport.

If you think my music is sentimental and self-absorbed, I agree with you.
