I'm really fortunate that I've had some mega hits.

Our show doesn't rely on the typical whistles and bells, and smoke and mirrors. It relies mostly on the music.

In between that time, I've done book narrating, you know, books on tape for Dove Audio.

I'm not a toy boy, bellybutton band, so I don't have to worry about that. Actually, I never did.

There's also, I think more so in the music business and especially for women, this ceiling that people put on you if you have children or a family and decide to spend time with them.

But these days, I get a lot more attention and airplay from the Adult Contemporary and country radio stations, and I feel comfortable saying I'm a part of that.

And I think that we're more of an alternative act in that sense, and that flavor comes across to the audience.

And looking at today's music scene, I think it's cool that there are a lot of consumers and fans not limited by what radio and the record companies tell them to buy.

As you know, the business is cyclic with styles. It's no different from clothing styles.

I've been lucky. I've had this history of having an appeal to more than one type of audience.

I work a lot, and not just in Las Vegas.

Girls are weighed down by restrictions, boys with demands - two equally harmful disciplines.

Secrets find a way out in sleep . . . It is the place where there is no pretense.

Marilyn Monroe to me is the epitome of glamour, and always has been since I was a kid.

I showed my appreciation of my native land in the usual Irish way: by getting out of it as soon as I possibly could.

Music should be like making love. Sometimes you want it soft and tender, another time you want it hard and aggressive.

This is the first time I've done something like this and I'm really hoping this will work.

The C.E.O.'s job in a creativity-driven company is to be an impresario, not a manager.

The immensity of His worth is reflected in the intensity of your worship.

When I was a kid I was very particular. I was actually beyond particular. I would iron my money and spray it with Polo cologne.

I'm playing to around 30% of my potential - you'd be shocked at what I could do.
