Quote for the Day:
"I would cringe every time the song ['Love Makes The World Go 'Round'] came on the radio.
I'd think "God, I don't like that". And I wrote it, too.
I just don't like that song.
Hey, maybe I didn't like it - I mean, it bugged me - because I wrote it so fast [about four minutes] and put it aside so fast, and then it sat around for a year before it was released.
I guess I figured it shouldn't be worth anything. It was too easy.
It kind of gets to me to do it.
But I do it...."
