I'm More Like An Oven Than A

They Usually Have A Piano In Every Nursing Home, And I Always Wanted To Perform For Whoever Would Listen When I Learned Something. I Grew To Understand Very Early That A Lot Of These People Who Are In Nursing Homes Are Elderly And Don't Have A Lot Of Things That Give Them Joy From Day To Day.

What Does Music Mean To Me? I Don't Think I Would Really Be Much Without It, Without It Coming Through Me. It's My Means Of Communication, My Means Of Growth, My Means Of Transportation From One Point In My Life To Another.

Some People Come Up And Ask For An Autograph And Don't Even Look At Me. They're Like, 'here, Do It.' That Don't Bother Me, But It Doesn't Open My Heart.

I Think A Lot Of People Have Lost Respect For The Individual, You Know, The Individual, The Person Who Doesn't Conform.

But Now I Realize That This Record Business Really Needs Me. No One Else Is Trying To Take A Chance Or Do Something Different.
