Then, for a hot three or four weeks I wanted to be a concert pianist.

My mother wanted me to be a concert pianist.

I always wanted to be a full-time musician. Every television job I had was a means to buy a grand piano, or to put in a recording studio, or something like that.

I really wanted to just be a musician. I didn't want to be anything else, but I was funny and all that.

I really wanted to be a musician, but it turned out I had no sense of time.

I'd like to be a piano player.

When I was younger, playing piano and guitar were all things that I wanted to do for a short period of time, like any kid.

Until I was about 16 years old, my dream was to be a musician. I played in rock bands and jazz bands. Then I decided to be an actor and kept the stable career of 'jazz pianist' as my safety net.

I don't think I could have ever had a career as a pianist because I never ever wanted to play the notes the way they were written, I was too sloppy to learn them quite right.
