Musician

Young female voices are the loudest voices of all with the fans.

I went to America and got into a band, had success, had hits in Australia.

There weren't a lot of girl singers around. Paul McCartney and John Lennon were the guys I looked up to.

I've always treated women well.

I like to write when I feel I'm the real me.

Other than dying, I think puberty is probably about as rough as it gets.

You know, everybody is dealing with issues.

Relationships and the stress of the world going down, it puts a lot of stress on people, you know financially.

As I've gotten older, I realize how important my fans are and that I'm here because of them and not the other way around.

I was - I've always been a bit of perpetual adolescent.

Being a songwriter does not rely on an audience or other band members or a camera. I can just sit in a room and write songs.

I'm thankful for serendipitous moments in my life, where things could've gone the other way.

I was pretty burned out in '85 and was getting - starting to get into some issues.

They were marketing me as a teen idol, when the stuff on the record was not what teen idols were doing at the time.

I love acting.

I'll watch any show on the History Channel.

I learned to read and write and socialize in school, and that's pretty much it.

I get inspired at different times and in different ways.

I was one of those dark, quiet kids that wrote poetry.

I've been writing songs since I was 14 years old, and that's my true love.
