Growing up, I didn't feel cool; I didn't fit into any crowd.

I was never part of the crowd.

I was never considered cool throughout my teens: a very important time to be accepted by someone, especially your peers. Yes, I had all the screaming women, but the guys hated my guts.

I never felt popular as a child and never had best friends.

My music was never considered cool, but I've always felt that connection with the audience.

I've never been cool - and I don't care.

And when I was a kid being an actor was not cool. I'm thirty now and when I was a kid in the 80s that wasn't a cool thing to be.

I wasn't some weird loner in school, but I definitely wasn't invited to any of the cool parties.

Once I started singing, I didn't have to try to be cool. I was just one of the coolest guys around.

Personally, I was never the cool kid. I was always sort of a bookworm.
