Well, once you've resigned yourself to the fact that you are the more mature pop performer and you're past the age you ever thought you would do it, you might as well do it as long as you can. As long as I can still lift a microphone, then I'll do it, you know. ↗

One of the reasons for going back into the past is that it's almost the only place that there's any drama. ↗
