I’m just trying to keep things simple, and just be a little more offhand and not get so deep into things. Enjoy what you got right now, because who knows what’s going to happen tomorrow.
I write probably 80 percent of my stuff over the winter.
I guess I lost my way, there were so many roads. I was living to run, and running to live, never worried about paying or even how much I owed.
Mediocrity is easy; the good things take time, the great things need commitment.
Call me a relic, call me what you will, say I’m old fashion, say I’m over the hill. Today’s music ain’t got the same soul, I like that old time rock and roll.
If I want to work, I can. If I want to play golf, or ride my motorcycle, I can. But the rest of it is family. Sometimes you’re not really needed by your family, but you’re there. And my kids like to know I’m there.
Up with the sun. Gone with the wind.
Take a lesson from the trees, watch the way they bend with each breeze, little victories.
Those are the memories that made me a wealthy soul.
Dreams die hard and we watch them erode, but we cannot be denied the fire inside.
I like people to just bring it to the table and feel the moment. And that’s why I’ve never done a session where I don’t sing live.
One victim lives in tragedy, another victim stops to stare, and still another walks on by pretending not to see.
Tell them we’ll be dancing, dancing ’til we drop, it’s time to get down and do the Horizontal Bop.
I just start playing music and eventually I sing something, a line of a verse or a B section or a line of a chorus, and the line that I end up singing is related to the music I’m playing, if that makes any sense. And I go from there.
When you have kids, you start thinking about their future and you forget about yours.
Yeah, I’m just blessed to have this very strong thing, my vocals. I’m very healthy in that regard.
