I Do Think That When You Make

I Divorce Myself From Listeners Who Aren't Tolerant Of Humor. I Did Notice Universally That, Especially When It Comes To Weight, People Look In The Mirror And Get The Angle Just Right, Tell Themselves It's All Right, And Then They Go Out.

Why Would I Want To Sound Like Joni Mitchell? I've Got Joni Mitchell Records, And They're Great, And I Couldn't Possibly Be That Good.

Because I Write Very Simply, But Inside The Simplicity, There's A Lot Of Subtlety. That's What I'm Proud Of.

Billy Joel And Joe Jackson Were Both Great, And They Both Play Piano.

I'm Definitely An Anomaly, But I'm Making Things. They're Selling, Say, Martinis, And I'm Kind Of Making Vintage Riesling. People Aren't Going To Sit There Very Often, Not Your Average Public, And Your Average Music-business Monster Is Not Going To Take The Time To Notice The Overtones And The Undertones Inside The Flavor. They'd Rather Just Have The Martini.
