I definitely spend the most money on shoes partly because vintage footwear can be a little funky - in a bad way. I like to keep things pretty simple up top and then go weird with the shoes.

My mom always encouraged me it was never weird. She'd look at 'Heavy Metal' and go 'Woo-hoo!'

We didn't have a TV in the living room and all my friends thought we were kind of weird. When they'd come over my mom wanted to talk to them about current events.

Not to be weird but I still have an ongoing relationship with my mom even though she passed away and I've been surprised at how much I've been able to convey to her. Now I sound like a total weirdo but that's true.

Isn't it so weird the day you wake up and you're just going with the flow? And you just suddenly are a mom.

My father was a Catholic but my mother wasn't. She had to do that weird deal you do as a Catholic - they deign to sanction your marriage and you have to bring your children up as Catholics.

I remember driving home one evening while they were reviewing the papers on the radio. One of the articles was about me separating from my wife. It's a weird thing to listen to a news report about the break-up of your marriage.

It's not an act. I love it. It's totally original. People go 'What's going on with this guy? Why does he sound so weird? What is going on in his brain. I don't know. Just one day I suddenly woke up with a new brain.

I have six sisters so I assumed I'd have a girl. Learning I was having a boy was really weird.

Every time you go in it's like starting over. You don't know how you did the other records. You're learning all over. It's some weird musician amnesia or maybe the road wipes it out.
