He Knows I Rip Him

A Fine Timepiece Is Part Of Dressing Like A Gentleman. When I First Made A Little Money, I Bought My First Watch Which Was A Rolex Daytona. It Was Just One Of Those Things That Said I Was Successful.

I'm Not Like A Legend That - So I'm Sort Of In The Middle In This Sort Of Gray Area Where, You Know, I'm Creating Music And I'm Not Saying There Isn't An Audience Because There Is Because All Of Those People Go Out And Spend $80 To $150 On A Concert Ticket.

You Can't Listen To What People Who Aren't Musical Have To Say. When Anytime Was Released, I Had Bad Reviews, And At First I Was Hurt. Your Songs Are Like Your Children. You Don't Want To Hear, 'your Kid Is Ugly.' But I Knew The Record Was Good And It Would Sell.

I Wanted To Put Jazz On The Record, All The Loves Of Music That I Had On The Record, So I Could Show People I Was Ahead Of My 19 Years. It May Have Been Over The Heads Of Some People.

You'd Hear Willie Nelson, Then Earth, Wind & Fire, Then Chicago, Then Billy Joel On The Same Radio Station. Nowadays, Everything Is Compartmentalized.
