The quality of the writing, really. Simple as that. Beautiful words. It's very nice as a singer to do great songs, which have wonderful lyrics and strong feelings underneath the song.
nice different pursue
It's nice to know that there are several different avenues I could pursue.
song nice one-day
I did some songs for Baz Luhrmann's The Great Gatsby. I had done a jazz album of Roxy songs, and they used bits of it in the film. It would be nice to score a movie one day.
nicer secondary
In New York, you couldn't wish for a nicer audience, or in L.A., Chicago, Boston. But when you get into secondary markets, they don't have a clue.
music
Oh yes, much, because music is just something that comes to you. You don't question it.
best hope sure
I'm not really sure what it was, the best moment. You always hope it's to come.
music
I like the fact that music is more abstract.
I had beautiful bikes and I was really into it. I just thought it was really glamorous.
But I don't write so much now, because they're too painful.
I mean, there are so many of his songs that I like that I could easily do that one day.
feeling quite
But I was feeling quite down at the time. I was living in L.A., which was kind of weird for me.
thinking dukes embrace
I like to think Duke Ellington would probably embrace a fragrance as well.
song fall rain
I like lots of songs, and I find it quite interesting to do [cover songs] from time to time. My first solo hit was in 1973, the [Bob] Dylan song "A Hard Rain's Gonna Fall."
years sometimes hundred
I tour a lot, sometimes like a hundred shows a year.
