I wasn't sure how my dad would react. There was an agent sitting behind them and he told me he was embarrassed to watch the scenes. My parents have always been very open. They trust my decisions.

Well my dad was a pretty good player at one stage and my two older brothers played golf as well. So there were always golf clubs flying around the house.

My father was Catholic my mother was Protestant and because of that I got Christened in both churches so I've got all these names... but my Dad always called me Mick.

Everybody always wants to rebel against their parents' music but nobody listened to music louder than my dad.

We sat together as a family for dinner at night. And my mother had a job. My dad had a job. But there was always a meal on the table at 6:00 you know.

I grew up loving Walter Payton. My dad used to always show us film of him.

My dad would always say 'What can you do to make the world a better place?' Well I can make people laugh.

I deal with my sons like young men. If they have a problem with something they come to me. I am the type of dad that will drop everything I am doing for them and always tell them to talk to me about it.

I always had a standard of back when I was doing the country music I always told people I would never record a song that I wouldn't sit down and sing in front of my mom and dad.

That's what my Dad always told me on the ballot they should always have a third choice like none of the above then if enough people picked that they'd have to get new candidates.

So I was always around music and my dad was in his own way a progressive jazzer a big band jazzer guy.

Mom was the one who taught me unconditional love. With Dad I'd always felt there was something to live up to - expectations. But in the last year we had a wonderful relationship.

A lot of young filmmakers bring their movies to my dad because he always gives lots of good editing ideas and notes. He'd be a good film professor.

I've always wanted to be a dad. I just can't wait to have a little rug rat running around. I used to want five or six kids but maybe I've become too self-absorbed over the years. I think two would be perfect.

I didn't really hear any other music other than what my dad was working on until I was 12. My recollection of hearing other music was that I liked some things that I heard but I always thought 'Where's the rest of it?' It didn't have the same amount of detail or instrumentation or imagination in the arrangements.

My dad has always been extremely supportive in every decision I've made and much more interested in me picking what I wanted to do.

I've always wanted to be a dad.

My dad was a musician. He was a singer and he played the guitar so music was always around.

My dad always told me that anyone's voice is just another instrument added to the music.

My dad always told me that the best way to get somebody to get at you is to talk bad about them to somebody else.

Playing music has always felt very natural. You know you do try to do other things and you do learn lessons that way but eventually - well... if your dad is a plumber you become a plumber. It's the family business and I felt like I was taking over the family business.

The music I want to hear in my head sounds somewhere between Jimi Hendrix and Massive Attack. It's not really like my dad but there will always be similarities because we have the same vocal cords and I learnt the guitar the way he taught me.

When I was on Broadway when I was little I remember always driving through Times Square with my dad to the theater. Now when I go back you can't even drive on Broadway in the 40s. New Times Square is too touristy to me.

Dad made it to Gold Shield Detective so he always busted Robin my oldest brother and me. Always got caught whatever we were doing.
