He's written some great songs. I thought that 'Blues Man' was a perfect song for me to do as a tribute.

Blues are the songs of despair, but gospel songs are the songs of hope.

The Clash did a song. Nick Cave did a song. All these blues figures have done songs about him. It's kind of interesting that this man was a nobody.

There are many examples of great songs that become more famous when they are covered.

I'm a songwriter who just wants to bring people great songs.

I don't wanta do any Blues or any sad songs.
