John Mellencamp

For me to pretend I'm the keeper of the small town mentality or that's all I'm interested in is wrong.

People in Indiana have known me for 25 years. They've known George Bush four.

I've just been fortunate to havehad a lot of hit records, though Human Wheels doesn't qualify as a hit record-but it's really the best single I've ever had.

Exeter was, I suspect, more crucial in my life than in the lives of most members of my class, and conceivably, than in the lives of almost anyone else who ever attended the school.

I have rules about eating, exercising and rules about staying positive. And these rules are sacred to me.

It is good to be in front of the lens to appreciate more being behind the lens.
