I needed to step away from music because the truth was I couldn't be the dad I wanted to be to my kids. My truth was that I could not reconcile the two worlds - the entertainment world and being the dad I wanted to be in the present. You can't substitute time, you just can't.

All my band members were old enough to be my dad. It was like this family vibe.

Truthfully, I'm still Corey Hart, Dad, first.

I think that every therapist that I know, including my dad and my sister, have their own issues. But that empathy is what makes them good at their job.

Dad worked his entire career as an aviation technician. Mom was a legal secretary who became a teacher. We lived a simple American life.

My dad was good friends with the Bad Medicine Blues Band - one of the only blues bands in Fargo, as you can imagine! He took me out to see them play when I was 12 years old and I was really inspired by their guitar player, Ted Larsen.

My dad was a good athlete. My mom had longevity. There were some athletic genes that certainly got passed down.

I miss my Dad. My Dad loved cheesy monster movies, so we'd have Godzilla movie marathons. Those are some of my favorite memories, laughing at how the monster outfits were so bad, like black garbage bags for heads.

I've always had an affinity for lawyers. My dad is a lawyer. He's retired now. My brother is a lawyer.

Every dad who loves his daughter is not going to want her to go with the penniless slacker loser poet bum, when she could go out with someone who's successful.
