Tommy gave me my first chance on stage. And I won't forget it.

They were pretty mobbed up, ... It was like the real-life 'Sopranos.'Ÿ.

I was always friends with Nick.

He was an easy guy to love but hard to understand.

The way the lyric, ?you're just too good to be true I can't take my eyes off you.? It's just magical.

I was always friends with Nick. You sell a hundred million records and see how you handle it!

I think he's as close as I could possibly imagine, ... But it's still a strange feeling. At first it was very uncomfortable, and then you kind of get used to it.
