Experience

Me
|
Nov 07, 2020

The pomp, power, and military bombast of 'La Marseillaise' draws me into the history of France and my own. The surname I was born with was French: D'Orsay; perhaps an ancestor was amongst those troops that marched to this evocative anthem for the first time as they entered Paris 200 years ago!

Fight
|
Nov 07, 2020

'La Marseillaise' sounds best ringing around a packed sports stadium. Its lyrics evoke revolution, conflict, taking up arms, preparing for the fight - everything my music does not! Even in our largely peaceful times, it retains its rousing, martial air that gives it a power that hasn't diminished.

Day

Heart
|
Nov 07, 2020

My father was 91 when he passed away of natural causes, and my mother died aged 88. She had a heart condition and had many heart attacks throughout her life, but she had ten children, so that would have put a strain on her body.

Body
|
Nov 07, 2020

Me

Home
|
Nov 07, 2020

'Driving Home For Christmas' is just a great Christmas song because people are in their cars and driving home.

God
|
Nov 07, 2020

Retirement has never entered my mind for one moment because I don't feel the age I am - and I don't act it, and I don't speak like it. When God calls me, that's when I stop. Until then, I'm going to just keep going.

How

A man can be as sexy as he wants to be.

Future
|
Nov 07, 2020

Nov 07, 2020

I'm a very good husband. And a very good father.

Entertainment Industry
|
Nov 07, 2020

Man
|
Nov 07, 2020

Life

Like

Nov 07, 2020

Good
|
Nov 07, 2020

In the end, I didn't think I was good enough to use sax as a stage performer to get where I wanted, and thank God I chose my voice as my instrument instead. You need to be honest with yourself, and I was.

Mind
|

Fifty - it's going to be for the rest of my life. I'm going to count myself as a 50-year-old, sing like I'm 50, and act like I am, too. That's how I feel, and I believe if you have that frame of mind, it keeps you young.
