My Voice Is An Instrument.

If I Was A Politician Right Now I Would Change Just About Everything.

When I Was Very, Very Young, Seven Years Old, I Heard There Was School Where You Could Go To Learn To Draw. That Was My Absolute Driven Passion, To Become An Artist Or A Painter. So The Romantic Realist In Me, I Studied To Be A Graphic Design Artist And An Art Teacher.

I Stand By Every Decision I've Made Throughout My Career And My Life, Good Or Bad, Up Or Down.

I've Never Been Uncomfortable Putting My Heart On Display, My Feelings On Display, Certainly With An Audience.

With Whitesnake It Would Have Been Inappropriate For Me To Have Played Deep Purple Songs, Although I Did At The Beginning Because I Didn't Have Enough Whitesnake Songs.
