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

The technology is good and it's bad. You know what you're dealing with out there musically but my head stops at this electronic stuff. I don't quite know what I'm dealing with out there yet.

I think technology has changed America not any one organization. Technology is taking the power away from the few. There'll be a lot more choices and good people who are doing serious stuff will survive and there'll be a lot more voices and that is very healthy.

Automation and technology would be a great boon if it were creative if there were more leisure more opportunity to engage in raising a family providing guidance to the young all the stuff we say we need. America will work if we're all in it together. It'll work when there's a shared sense of destiny. It can be done!

I do know a lot about Scientology. And I know about the practices. I know all about what the technology is and all that kind of stuff. It's very helpful.

I think complexity is mostly sort of crummy stuff that is there because it's too expensive to change the interface.

I guess by taking lessons early on and really trying to play all the rudimentary stuff and try to have it sound as good as my teacher. It took a lot of practice which I enjoyed and still do.

Well financially it's a little bit better. But it's better than than when I was a teacher. But I kind of - it's allowed me to buy a house. And I've been able to help my mother with some stuff and my brother. So that's nice.

I always think when there's stuff that people don't like I always say that if I have another success I'll enjoy it more but you don't really.

The thing you don't dream about as a kid is all the peripheral stuff that comes with success.
