My 12 years in New York were very, very special, the fans were very special, and it's something I will take with me wherever I go and into retirement.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I have been extremely fortunate to have incredibly special fans support my work throughout my twelve year career.
It's nice to go to small places where we had a lot of fans. They followed our career and it's kind of a way to say thank you to them and do it for a good cause.
I've had a relatively charmed life. I loved to be out in the city. New York was my town. I've had people come up to me and say, 'You're a great New Yorker. You've given your time and money to so many New York charities. You're a great supporter of the arts. I like some of your movies - and some of your movies suck, actually.'
My passion is New York and the vitality that makes it special.
I enjoy being in New York. I have so many fans here that sing all my songs from start to finish.
My fans have made all my career moments special for me. They are the ones that have gotten me through every single thing - good times and bad, they are who I go to and lean on. I am very thankful for that.
I started my career without fans.
After spending 22 years in Ohio, I love everything about New York.
At the end of the day, I'm greatly appreciative of all the fans that I was able to acquire over the years.
Living in New York for 10 months was incredible; it was everything I thought it was going to be and more.
