- It's a bit like being a mad scientist. You mix a bit of this with some of that. You're never sure what's going to happen. But I'd rather blow up the laboratory than keep reinventing the wheel.
- NPR World Cafe (June 18, 2008)

- A record should be like a bus ticket to somewhere, but you're not sure where that somewhere is going to be. (It) shouldn't just give you thirteen variations on the same four elements, like McDonald's, or something. 'You liked that one? Well here's the same thing, except with extra cheese.'

Cause when the feelin's right, I'm gonna stay all night.

There was only you and me.
We were young and wild and free.
Now nothing can take you away from me.
We've been down that road before.
But that's over now.
You keep me coming back for more.And baby you're all that I want.
When you're lying here in my arms,
I’m finding it hard to believe we're in heaven.
- I've been lookin' for someone
Between the fire and the flame.
We're all lookin' for somethin'
To ease the pain.
Now who can you turn to
When it's all black and white?
And the winners are losers.
You see it every night.I need somebody,
Somebody like you.
Everybody needs somebody.
- I got my first real six-string,
Bought it at the five-and-dime.
Played it till my fingers bled,

Had a band and we tried real hard.
Jimmy quit and Jody got married;
I shoulda known we'd never get far.Oh, when I look back now,
That summer seemed to last forever.
And if I had the choice,
Yeah - I'd always wanna be there.
Those were the best days of my life.

- The only thing I want,
The only thing I need,
The only thing I choose,
The only thing that looks good on me...is you.
- I love the way you look tonight
With your hair hangin' down on your shoulders.
N' I love the way you dance your slow sweet tango,
The way you wanna do everything but talk.
And how you stare at me with those undress me eyes,
Your breath on my body makes me warm inside.
- Wanna be young, the rest of my life.
Never say no, try anything twice.
Til the angels come and ask me to fly.
Gonna be 18 til I die - 18 til I die.
Can't live forever, that's wishful thinkin'.
Whoever said that must have been drinkin'.
Don't wanna grow up, I don't see why.
I couldn't care less if time flies by.18 til I die - gonna be 18 til I die.
Yeah it sure feels good to be alive.
Someday I'll be 18 goin' on 55!
- There's a road, long and winding.
The lights are blindin', but it gets there.

Everybody wants an answer, everybody needs a friend.
We all need a shinin' star on which we can depend.- Star, written by Bryan Adams, Mutt Lange, and Michael Kamen
- To really love a woman,
To understand her, you gotta know her deep inside.
Hear every thought, see every dream.
And give her wings, when she wants to fly.
