He was there for me in my youth to show me and celebrate with me my sexual openness that others judged harshly. Plus ... he was funky. Now, 30 years later, I like him because we've "grown up" together, and I've listened to him go through marriages, religious change and even sexual mellowing, just as I have. And he's still funky! He's also a role model because he fights for his rights as an artist, promotes vegetarianism, peace and tolerance. He's also a rocker who doesn't do drugs.
How about you? Why do you like him?
