I was a happy kid up until I hit the teen years.

During my teen years, I was real emotional. I could be really up or down.

The eighties were my teen years, so the GoGos are sort of a touchstone.

I got through my teen years by being a bit of a clown.

When I was growing up, particularly during puberty in my teen years, I was so miserable because I elicited so much teasing and meanness from my teenage cohorts.

They were marketing me as a teen idol, when the stuff on the record was not what teen idols were doing at the time.
