The stuff that I dig, it's usually got a soulful component to it. A singer that I really like. I might not understand the language that they're singing in, but I'm really communing with this person.

In the case of a person, ... you know, I was 10 once. I was 15 once. I was 20 once. I was 30 once. And now I'm in my 50s. So I am who I am today. But I'm also all of those other things. And I will be more than that in the future. But I'm each one of those things.

I got arrested once on stage in Memphis for looking too much like Liza Minnelli.

I mean, if you asked me what I'm going to be doing when I'm 85, I'd make a quick picture in my mind and, well, I'll be singing.

It's really a drag to do the same project over and over again.

I'm very soulful. I grew up singing in church. When I sing a song, I like to feel what I'm singing.
