When me and my brother Eagle-Eye were kids, life was about hitting the road, getting on the bus. We loved it.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I wanted to be a bus driver when I was a kid. I look at bus driving through the eyes of a little boy. I see it as glamorous.
I love my childhood. It was a beautiful childhood.
It's funny that I got to do 'On the Road' because the thing that had the biggest impact on me growing up was reading books. I was very inspired by the book and this spirit of Dean Moriarty and how envious we all are of somebody who can be that carefree.
I had an amazing childhood.
Once I took a bus from my home in Maryland to Philadelphia to live on the streets with some musicians for a few weeks, and then my parents sent me to boarding school at Andover to shape me up.
It was a fairly happy childhood. My father was working away, and my mum brought up five kids all on her own.
My parents sent me to a dance class, so it was a road chosen by them, not me. But I enjoyed it so much I knew I would become a performer.
Getting on the bus and touring was my life. And when that was not around, I felt myself a bit lost at times, because that was all I had.
As a child, I watched 'Dallas' and that was my vision for my life for as long as I could remember.
Just coming from a musical family, I was always surrounded by it. On the car rides to school, my mom loved playing A Tribe Called Quest and the Beatles' 'Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band,' and then my dad was listening to a lot of Bill Withers and Stevie Wonder.
