Loved it, it's sooo Richie, I can listen to his voice speaking those words in my mind.
Check it out here.
Here's an extract that tugs at my heart strings. I would definitely help him repair his houses. ANY.TIME.
On crafting his underrated solo albums, Stranger In This Town (1991) and Undiscovered Soul (1998)…
“For Stranger in this Town I wrote everything in this “stratospheric” [vocal] key for myself,” he told Guitar in 1998. “It was still good, but I felt that I sounded like an 18-year-old boy. For Undiscovered Soul I wanted to sound like me. I did more vocal training for Undiscovered Soul, made sure I sung a lot. Same with the songwriting. I wrote 30 songs to get to 12 on Undiscovered Soul. Songs are like houses: the more you live in them, the more they’ll tell you what makes you happy… and whether it needs a few repairs or a whole new roof. I have a few houses, so I know!”

The lounge area is the size of a five-a-side pitch, expensive pictures adorn the walls and a spiral staircase leads up to a rooftop apartment.
I greet the US rock superstar who is sitting in a corner dwarfed by his surroundings, sorting out his on-the-road "home comforts"...a laptop computer with pictures of his wife and kids, a guitar and his favourite training shoes.
"What's up there?" asked the singer, pointing to the staircase. "I've not even had the chance to find out. If only people could see the opulence of this hotel room. It's wonderful but I don't need it. Just give me a bed. I really don't care for the rest of it."
