I'd Hear A Tune In My Head

Somebody Else Does The Rigor And Then I Listen. I Have An Assistant, And My Manager, And Other People Who Hunt And Find And Send It To Me, And Then I Just Figure Out Which Ones I Can Do Justice To.

To Love Means You Also Trust.

It [my Vocal] Didn't Sound Like What I Wanted To Hear; The Vibrato Isn't What I Liked Anymore. So I Got Myself To An Ear, Nose And Throat Guy Who Does A Lot Of Work With Singers, And I Was Hoping There Was A Big Wart On My Vocal Cords Or Something And They Could Scrape It Off And I Could Have The Voice I Wanted. But He Said, "no, For 71, That's Your Voice."

I Didn't Study Anything Really. I Didn't Learn Out Of The Books Because I Couldn't Read Music Very Well, So It Is What They Say It Is - You Learn From Other People. And My Cohorts And I Would Sneak Around The Coffee Shops And Hear Stuff We Wanted To Learn, And Then You Ask Whoever Was Playing It To Teach You.

I Don't Think Of Myself As A Symbol Of The Sixties, But I Do Think Of Myself As A Symbol Of Following Through On Your Beliefs.
