We had several hits in the States but probably only one big one in Europe. The crowds are smaller.

Today, it's very tempting to create songs by cutting and pasting in the studio.

Our first record, 'Huey Lewis And The News', was seen by no one - it sold 25 copies.

I may be the most recognizable name in the cast, but I can guarantee that I am not the most talented.

Film is a lark to me - thank God I don't have to make a living from it.

I know my choices will be creative so long as I follow my heart.

I don't tap dance, and I don't think you can learn to tap dance in three weeks at my ripe old age.

I was knocked out by the show, Chicago.

I am deluded enough to think I can bring something to the table.

We had several hits in the States but probably only one big one in Europe. The crowds are smaller.

A lot has been written and said about why he was so great, but I think the best way to appreciate his greatness is just to go back and play some of the old records. Time has a way of being very unkind to old records, but Elvis' keep getting better and better.

After 'Sports' came out in the fall of 1983, everything changed for me. Four of the album's singles became top-10 hits, and by the end of June in 1984, the album was No. 1 on the Billboard chart. It was quite a ride, and for the first time I had enough money to live the way I wanted.

Back in the day you wanted your albums to have a theme, and 'Sports' theme was really a collection of singles. It was really a record for its time.

I am a Bay Area guy, no question.

I don't have a formal home recording studio, but I can record tracks on my computer upstairs in my office.

I got a very good life. I sold plenty of records, I get recognized plenty, I can always have somebody call up and get me a fine table at a restaurant. What do you really need, ultimately?

I grew up in Marin County north of San Francisco, and in the 1950s and '60s it was a natural paradise.

I was in a vintage pub rock band called Clover in the 1970s.

I went to engineering school, I went to physics class. I said, 'Screw this, I don't want to be here. I'd much rather be at a club playing music.'

In '87 - four years after 'Sports' was released - my family and I began vacationing in Montana. I soon bought my first piece of land in Ravalli County, in the western part of the state.

In the '80s, the way radio was programmed, if you didn't have a hit record you weren't going to be able to make any more records. That was it, period.

It's true, I do like cheering people up.

The choices I make - they have to be creative.

The choices for me now are completely creative. I know, when I'm going to make a record, it ain't going to sell.

Well, we were originally called Huey Lewis and the American Express. But on the eve of the release of our first record, our record label, Chrysalis Records was afraid that we'd be sued by American Express.

When you get in the pocket, there is a place where the music begins to play itself. When you can find that spot, it's the best feeling in the world.

I like people-watching and fading into crowds.

We tell our triumphs to the crowds, but our own hearts are the sole confidants of our sorrows.

As they marched, the crowds lining the route broke into applause, a sweet and deeply felt spontaneous pattering that was a sort of communal embrace. Welcome home.

The adoring crowds and overwhelming Democratic support in the 2008 election was based largely on joy at jettisoning Bush and the appeal of electing a superbly qualified charismatic African American leader.

You know, to address crowds and make promises does not require very much brains.

I think in New York we had respect and we would pretty much fill up the places where we went, but I never got the sense that we really were Number 1 here in New York among the Latin crowds.

If there is a look of human eyes that tells of perpetual loneliness, so there is also the familiar look that is the sign of perpetual crowds.

I just play to the people I can see. So it's almost like you are playing to the first few rows of the crowd. You can see the faces of the first hundred people, but then it becomes a blur as the crowds disappear over the hill.

She was built for crowds. She has never come any closer to life than the dinner table.

I get very anxious and am scared in crowds and things like that.

We know that Europe loves President Obama. He had adoring crowds. The press loves Obama. The question is how will this date end? Okay? The question is, to what end? Why do they love President Obama? They love his personal story, they love his wife. North Korea, China and Russia don't really care about Michelle's arms and, you know, whether they gave an iPod to the Queen, okay?

In 1982 when I showed up, the average age of the drivers in the series was something like 40, 41. The crowds were small. There was not much prize money. The competition wasn't very tight.

I found myself getting more publicly shy when the gala events and big crowds started. Some people embrace it. To me, it's not worth enough to risk my private life being public.

Where there had been only jeers or taunts at first, crowds come to listen with serious and sympathetic men.

Since that first showing of Foolish Wives I have seemed to walk through vast crowds of people, their white American faces turned towards me in stern reproof.

For me, winning isn't something that happens suddenly on the field when the whistle blows and the crowds roar. Winning is something that builds physically and mentally every day that you train and every night that you dream.

The street to obscurity is paved with athletes who can perform great feats before friendly crowds.

There are no crowds out there demanding to see smoking scenes in movies.

I always said that when it was time to retire, I would know it, and I would just tip my hat to the crowds.

I'm good friends with The Rock, and I talk to him all the time. And he says that, even though his movie career has taken off, he misses the instant gratification of wrestling, and the live crowds, and I could see being that way myself.

Then you get to be involved with all the people, meet all the beautiful girls, get all the good food, get ready and locked in before all the crowds hit.

When I'm on tour, I'm in a new city every single night, and the energy and the crowds and the kids and the screaming and them knowing every single word of my music and being onstage is such an energetic feeling with a big payoff.

I hate crowds of people pretending to be happy on one night of the year, where they get drunk and obnoxious by the end of the night.
