I'd love to be a pop idol. Of course, my groupies are now between 40 and 50.
Anti-parent music seems to be all the pop-rock market wants.
My favorite type of music to sing is a crossover between country and pop.

They who want to sing will always find a song.
The bear knows seven songs and they are all about honey.
Songs and smells will bring you back to a moment in time more than anything else. It's amazing how much can be conjured with a few notes of a song or a solitary whiff of a room. A song you didn't even pay attention to at the time, a place that you di...
Today's marriages become toxic, with resentments, after only a few years. It's one thing to say, 'I forgive,' but most lack the enterprise to do the necessary work that follows. It was the day after that proved who had the wisdom of God and who didn'...

Girl: How come you don't play during daytime? I see you here everyday. Guy: During the daytime people would want to hear songs that they know, just songs that they recognize. I play these song at night or I wouldn't make any money. People wouldn't li...

I can remember back as far as age 8, performing with the Boston Folk Song Society. It was a Woody Guthrie song.
Never believe anything you hear at a woman’s tit.
Wherever the hope of glory lives, hopelessness passes away.
I just want to be loved, is that so wrong?!
With every album, the approach is find the best songs you can find, write the best songs you can write and try to sound better.
