For me, a holiday is about taking a book and going to a mountain and reading.
I want the world to know that everybody deserves a second chance.
I never thought I'd get a chance to sing with Wilson Pickett but we did.
I just have to take my chances like any other composer.
We got a chance to go and play in some places that the usual European tour by an American band didn't go to.
If you give me the chance, I'll destroy America for you.
Anyone playing with you is going to change where your direction is.
If you don't change, you're dead, so I try to keep changing.
I drive a hybrid. It's a Ford Escape. That's my only car.
Christmas is the antithesis of Thanksgiving. Christmas is pretty much a man-made holiday.
I am blessed to have Mom and Dad.
A perpetual holiday is a good working definition of hell.
If you don't make mistakes, you aren't really trying.
It's dangerous to get too far from what they identify you with.
Princess Ann: Is this the elevator? Joe Bradley: This is my ROOM!
Irving Radovich: Hit him again, Smitty!
I spend my money on holidays and eating out, and it allows me to be generous.
People relate to me, and I try to make songs that make people smile.
When I draw my caricature self-portrait, I always do a huge smile.
Music is like an open sky. You know it's out there... and there you are.
I really, really enjoy music and that's why I do what I do.
