John Mellencamp

You know, there's a point in a man's life where he feels like there's got to be more to life than this.

I mean, I had huge hit records and, you know, very, very, very, very, very lucky, very lucky.

You know, everything was just lucky.

And I would go home and I would think,

I'm not happy.

There's got to be more to life than this.

And then guess what happened?

I got a little bit older and I found out there's not.

And I'm good at it.

I'm good at it, so we're only on this earth for a few fucking minutes.

Quit feeling sorry for yourself and quit being confused and accept your responsibilities and try to maintain some humility, which was a million miles away from me spitting on people.

In a bar.

And all you got to see of guys in rock bands were their album covers.

Mm-hmm.

You would go to a record store and file through the records, and if you liked the way a band looked, you would buy the record.

At least I would.

And so, I forgot the question.

I think that for me, I think when that happens, it's the age you're at.

And I think it's a chemical imbalance in our brain.

And as we grow older, it kind of finds its way.
