I could have been more famous if I did all the glitzy things, but celebrity always seemed so unnecessary.
Music is a spiritual expression of what's in your heart. Music as a way of getting rich is a pretty new thing, and I often wonder if the mega-bucks glitzy atmosphere is making the quality of music suffer. You have to work really hard to get around that and remember why you're in it in the first place: because you have to be. It's like an addiction. You can't go a day without picking up your guitar. To me, the only commercial goals that are really valid are, 'Boy, I wish I didn't have to go to work. I wish I could do this all the time. '
My look is always glitzy for New Year's Eve, even if I am at home.
I want to be a man's man-not a kid actor or a glitzy pop star but a no-bullshit leading man.
