Michael: There is no subject

Céline: David is one of

You've probably heard

Josh: David Foster was

Lionel: He's a comedian,

he's an entertainer.

A very talented musician,

songwriter.

When he walks in the room,

he is Mr. Show Biz.

Diane: He makes it looks

so easy, and it's so hard.

Within the historical

music business,

there's him and Quincy Jones.

Quincy: That's when you're

dealin' with God, man.

You have to know what

that artists capacity is.

You just keep diggin'

'til you get it.

Barbara: I'm very funny

and extremely easy

to work with in a studio.

He's not.

Kristin: When he writes

for someone,

he speaks their language.

- How many people are behind

as many hits as him?

I don't know,

the list is quite short.

Katharine: David Foster,

the life, the legend,

the mystery.

I am one of the fortunate

a really intimate,

that gets to have

deep relationship with him.

New York, it outpaces

Los Angeles

by a multiple of ten,

and I don't like that.

It has to do with

the claustrophobia,

New York crushes me, and um,

I don't like the energy,

and I don't like all

that weight on me

when I'm walking around.

And I'm way, way,

way out of my comfort zone

about the unknown

of getting to Broadway.

I think you have more luck of

getting killed by lightning

than you do of having

a hit Broadway show.

Man: You have room on

the piano for a Tony Award?

I mean, I look back there.

- I sure do.

Nobody wants the EGOT

Emmy, Grammy, Oscar, Tony.

And then I have

Kristin: Broadway as a tendency

So there's a feeling that

David needs to pay his dues,

but I would also add,

David, we are so ready.

We are so ready for you.

Give us that gift,

and then tell your story.

Todd: New York is its own

creature,

like LA is its own creature.

He has crossed over,

he's pop, he's radio,

he's done film,

he's done television.

Kelly: I think the difference

between Broadway is,

you work with a bunch

of other people,

into the studio

as opposed to just going

and creating something

on your own.

You have the director,

you got the choreographer.

A lot of people jump

into the party,

David: Apparently when my

mother was dusting the piano,

I was three, four, five

years old, or whatever,

and I yelled out,

"That's an E!"

And she was going,

I said "That's an E

That would probably

be some indication

that you should do music.

In '63, I would've been 13

or 14,

there was a program

to go learn music

at University of Washington,

and I did it two years

in a row.

And I'd play every instrument:

clarinet, flute, baritone,

trumpet, trombone, bassoon.

Which helped me later on

in writing for orchestra,

because I understood the

workings of every instrument.

But then a magical thing

happened.

On my little transistor radio,

and I heard this song.

["She Loves You" by Beatles

playing on piano]

I was 13-years-old,

and I could not believe

this sound that I was hearing.

It literally changed my life,

and I said, "That's what

I want to do. That!"

Bill: David once as a teenager

played Ronnie Hawkins' band.

He fired David because

he knew David loved

the rock 'n' roll life.

And he said,

David you're a genius,

rock 'n' roll man.

and I'm a three cord

And if I fire you

there is a chance you'll

find your genius.

David: My mother and father,

when I was 16,

they took their life savings.

Life savings.

$1700.

And bought a piano

and amplifier for me.

But to wipe out your

savings for your child,

is pretty crazy.

I didn't play his song

which is not a good fit,

Most of the band quit.

They got disillusioned,

they wanted to go home.

And I said,

"Well, I'm not goin' home,

I'm stayin'.

I'm here to make it."

I stayed for about a year

and it was, without a doubt,

the loneliest time of my life.

I auditioned for everything.

London was so cruel to me,

nothing short of a tragic life.

After a year of doing that,

I gave in and my parents

sent me sixty dollars,

and that was a air ticket home.

By age 13, I was making

more money than my father,

I said, "Yeah, I do."

He said, "You think you have

a chance at making it

"Okay then, good night."

of months later.

I woke up to go to school

Jaymes: I think Dad's

dying truly affected David.

He was only 18,

and our dad was only 54.

And at the same time,

he was conflicted

because he was starting

his own musical career.

David: When my father died,

there was three girls

left at home plus myself.

It was kind of chaos at home;

my mother, 47-years-old,

three young girls.

She didn't know

how to deal with it.

I should have stepped in

and taken care of it.

You know, brought order

to the house, but I don't.

Instead I made a selfish

decision to leave,

and not deal with the chaos.

I chose my career

over helping my mother

I was making enough money

He was the drummer that

The musicians

would come and jam.

Piano faced the wall,

I would just be playing along,

just like,

just grooving on a Sunday

and John Lennon would pop in,

and Joe Cocker.

And drums would drop out

just playing solo piano,

And I just thought

they were letting me play,

going and doing drugs.

The other guys in the band

were like,

how can this kid stay up

all night and play music,

and not do drugs?

I didn't know,

I just wanted to play music.

- I first met David

at a recording session

in the uh, 70's.

David: I was barely

a studio musician.

I was one of two or three

piano players.

I remember walking in

the studio.

She had diamonds by the

yard wrapped around her arm.

She has the most beautiful

hands.

She's a very elegant,

beautiful woman.

I just remember her kind

of floating in the studio.

We were playing along, and

in the middle of it she goes,

"Stop! It's not right!

It's not working for me. Stop."

- And I was singing a song,

but it didn't have the right

opening,

something was wrong about it.

- She said,

"Let's take a lunch break."

Me, being the opportunist

that I am,

I was in the corner

on my electric piano,

way in the corner,

hoping that the mic was on

because she was having her

lunch in the control room.

- And then I heard someone

playing a figure on a piano.

- And literally,

like out of the movies,

she walks through the door,

and she goes,

"Marty," to her manager,

"Listen to this!"

- And I said, "Was that you

playing that on the piano?

I like that. I like that."

- It worked.

- Let's do it the way

this guy was playing it.

- We're gonna do it like that.

- That happened

to be David Foster.

to the record today,

- And if you listen

it's her and I.

So then, 10 years later,

Barbra's doing

a Broadway album,

and there's a song called,

"Somewhere"

and she'd like you

to produce it.

And I went, "Dude, I'm in."

Barbra said to me,

"David, I want this record

to sound

on this planet,

like it was not created

but I don't want you to use

any orchestra,

I only want you to use

synthesizers."

We finished the mix.

In all modesty, I killed it.

So I called her up,

I said, "It's finished."

She said, "I wanna hear it

tonight."

I said, "Okay, well I'll drive

out and play it for you."

Drove out to her Malibu place.

She was having a party.

I knock on the door,

it was Elizabeth Taylor

And Elizabeth said to me,

"Hello, can I help you?"

I was like,

"You're Elizabeth Taylor."

a lot simpler,

David: My life would've been

and my children's life would've

been a lot simpler and easier,

if I had of not been

married so many times.

- No one's more afraid of

his track record than himself.

- Women have always

been his weakness.

- There's so many women.

- It's funny that he was given

daughters and sisters um,

and he was very close

with his mother too,

and he's always been close

with every woman in his family.

- Three older sisters

to dote on him,

three younger sisters

to look up to him.

- I don't think that he

planned on being married

five times in his life.

- So obviously, yes, women.

- If I was sitting in front

of a psychologist,

or a psychiatrist,

he would call me a runner.

When things get rough,

or bad, I run.

Erin: Having mixed families

is really challenging.

- There're never any pictures

of Grandpa Maury,

- Why?

- ...because he was always

holding the camera.

- I was three

when they broke up,

and he immediately was

living with the person

he had left our mom for.

And living in a house

with her and her kids.

♪ Happy birthday dear, Brody ♪

David: Nice key.

You're gonna sense scar tissue

with every child of mine

that you talk to.

Most of them would tell

the story

that I was divorced

from their mother

by the time they were five

or six years old.

time, literally all the time.

I was working all the

Sleeping at the studio for

two or three days at a time.

So, you're gonna see

a lot of scar tissue.

Amy: My father and I look

for exit strategies

the same way that other

people make dinner plans.

When conflict arises,

my dad's first instinct

is to avoid,

and evade, and deflect.

My father stayed in LA.

We were poor as shit.

I mean, we were poor.

My father sent child support,

but that's all we had.

And then, I would go during

the summer to see my dad,

and he was living in Malibu

in like a palace.

And I was like, wait.

David: It's more like,

hey, there is a shiny,

new thing over there.

In my mind, it's like,

on the other side.

the grass is always greener

It's a lot of that.

This is not working so...

that looks a lot better

to me over there.

- He lived like a king.

The mansions in Malibu

that I didn't live in,

to the neighbourhood

that I lived in, in Toronto,

to the very unconventional

family that I had.

I have 10 siblings,

and I'm an only child.

Wait. That's really fucked up.

David: You can just imagine

with children

from three different women,

and how tough it's been

for all the players.

When I run,

it's a knee-jerk reaction,

I just go.

I just move on.

And there are always

consequences.

The biggest mistake

I ever made

was leaving Rebecca.

Imagine leaving

and we have three children;

age 5, 4...

and Jordan was 7 months.

What a fucking stupid

thing to do.

I would just say I'm sorry.

You know, I'm sorry

that I really fucked it up.

Jordan: I do remember

having crying sessions,

just feeling like, oh God,

my dad doesn't love me.

And that's a horrible feeling.

Erin: There was a situation

he'd created

where he didn't live

with his own children.

He lived with someone

else's kids.

There was a lot of tension

there.

- You grow up a little bit

faster

than you would necessarily,

if you didn't have that

relationship with a parent.

Amy: I believed that I was

a casualty of his ambition.

- From my earliest memory,

I was in the studio with him.

While I did see the back

of his head for many years,

in the studio, I never

felt like he wasn't there.

I just always had so much

respect for him

and what he did.

Amy: I never felt angry,

I just accepted it.

I had to do it at the studio.

If I wanted to see my dad,

I love my father.

I adore my dad.

You know, when he shines

his light on you,

it is fantastic.

Sara: It wasn't always easy.

It wasn't easy as a kid.

I don't know,

if I had to choose to be

really close with my parent

as a kid, or as an adult,

I would pick an adult.

He's such a sounding board,

and such um,

almost like a friend

in a lot of ways.

- I would like to point out

at this moment,

that all five of my

daughters are here,

all the way from Florida,

Zurich, Edmonton,

Nashville, and LA.

Thank you, girls.

I have five amazing daughters,

all successful.

all strong-willed,

I think I did something right.

- There was never a time

he didn't pick up the phone

when you called.

- No.

- Anytime he was in the studio,

no matter what hour, what day--

- Or if he was working

with Madonna or something,

he'd be like, hold Madonna.

- There was never a time

that they came back

to the phone

and said he's not available.

- Never.

- I think that sometimes he

thinks he wasn't a good dad,

and that hurts my feelings,

because he was a good dad.

David: My message to them

is, you know, I did my best,

I could have done a lot better.

I'm trying to do my best now.

Pull up your bootstraps

and get on with it.

It would be hard for me to

sit with any of my children

I really love you.

and go, you know,

I really do.

And I really care about you.

That's probably never come

out of my mouth with my kids.

It's not hard for me to say

"I love you" at all.

It's a little bit rogued,

you know at the end of a

conversation with your kids,

love you. Love you too.

There is a big difference

between "love you"

and "I love you".

- And what do you say?

- Love you.

Amy: I know that he loves me

in the only way that he can.

The first time a song of

mine went number one,

he said, "Mhmm,

well, you know, Amy,

there's only one thing harder

than getting a number one

hit song."

And I went, "What?"

He's like, "Getting two.

And when you get two,

call me then."

Katharine: I hope Erin

doesn't mind.

She called me one day,

not too many months ago.

And was hysterical and was

really upset about her dad.

And it was to do with a

conversation that they had,

around a big, personal

event happening in her life.

Really not honouring

her feelings.

He was so upset,

but he couldn't say,

you know what,

it was just awful,

I feel horrible,

I'm so upset.

He couldn't say

any of that stuff.

I said, you know, you really

don't wanna go weeks now

not talking to her,

you need to fix this tonight.

And he looked at me so,

so defiantly and just said,

you know then, maybe she should

just go and do that.

And I was like, wow,

this is your own daughter,

like, you don't mean that.

I got him on the phone

with Erin that night,

and they're working

through it.

They have years and years

of stuff to work out.

I know how much he loves

his children.

be more intentional

I'm trying to get him to

with everything he does.

Whether that's having

relationships with his kids

because he know it's the right

thing to do,

but also because he genuinely,

genuinely cares.

And genuinely is interested

in wanting to know

who Sara is and Erin is,

and Jordan, and Amy

and Allison for that matter.

daughter that I had

David: Allison is a

when I was 19 or 20

with a girlfriend.

We gave the baby up

for adoption.

I knew that some day

she would come looking for me

and she did.

She was maybe 30, when she

found me on the internet.

She's really smart,

but it's a different feeling

than when you raise somebody.

And I think honestly

she probably would like

more from me,

it's just I can't,

I'm just spread too thin.

I had met Kevin Costner

in Vancouver.

He said, I'm about to do this

film called "The Bodyguard,"

would you be interested

in doing the music?

Quincy did tell me,

you are about to do the most

important project of your life.

He was absolutely right.

Clive: You start with

"The Bodyguard" itself,

the film.

When I first saw the rushes

at Christmastime,

I thought it was weak.

I thought that Warner Bros.

were much too dependent

on making this

a gripping thriller,

and there was very little,

if any,

demonstration of the stardom

of Whitney.

- All right, I'm up.

- It was Whitney's first film.

She was feeling her way

as an actress.

The chemistry between

Kevin Costner and Whitney

must be felt.

- Well, you don't look like

a bodyguard.

- What'd you expect?

Clive: Typically, the head

of any record company

is gonna want more music

in the film,

but unless you establish

Whitney's stardom,

the script didn't provide that.

So, I wrote a letter to

the director and Kevin,

saying just that -

if you don't get more music,

if you don't get more

performance from Whitney,

you do not have

a great film here.

Kevin Costner literally

took this letter to heart.

He assumed a very vital role

working with David Foster

on this.

David: I did a demo for it.

Whitney didn't like the demo,

I didn't like the demo.

And Whitney was like,

"Really, David?

I don't, I'm not gettin' this."

And then, luckily,

the song hit the charts

with Paul Young,

so I ran to Kevin Costner

and said,

"Ah, we can't do this song,"

feigning like,

that I'm disappointed.

So he said, "Okay, let me

come up with another song."

"Look,

- I didn't want to do

the first part a cappella,

and Kevin was like,

"No, I want it to be

no music for the first part."

I was like, "Come on, Kevin.

I mean, okay,

for your movie maybe,

but when I get it back

in the studio,

I'm gonna put music on it."

- Right after the first

run-through,

David sent it to me,

and it gave me chills.

- He loved my rough mix of it.

I said, you can't use

the rough mix.

- And in this particular case,

we did not see eye-to-eye.

- I know Whitney, I know what

she wants, blah, blah, blah.

Of course, nobody knew

Whitney better than Clive.

- And he repeated more

obscenities

very calmly,

He kept pushing, he said,

I really wanted

to leave at midnight,

but I embed up staying

until 2:00 o'clock.

I was living in Malibu,

I'm driving home.

It's a beautiful summer night.

I'm coming up on the top

Now, it's 2:30 in the morning.

- I ran down the road, this

and there was blood everywhere.

Out of the ears, out of

the nose, out of the mouth.

I mean, I-I just

destroyed his body.

All of a sudden I saw like

his hand just move slightly

and I thought, oh my God,

he's still alive.

Ambulance is on the way...

the helicopter lands.

All hell is breaking loose.

They get out the body bag

because they think

the guy is dead.

- Now it's 5 o'clock

in the morning.

He must have had some ID

on him. And then they said,

do you know who that was

that you hit, right?

That was Ben Vereen.

Newsreel: Ben Vereen--

- Master of the musical

theatre...

Broadway for "Pippin".

- Who won a Tony award on

Who was in "Jesus Christ

Superstar",

and "Hair"

and "Jelly's Last Jam"

and starred in "Grind",

and was so brilliant in that

wonderful Bob Fosse movie

"All That Jazz".

Ben Vereen--

David: Every 60 seconds

I would see the impact.

Like that.

Like every minute.

Ben: I was pretty broken up.

I got to the hospital

and they said it was-

I was pretty much over.

I had a trech.

This right side

was completely stroked.

My left femur was broken.

My spleen was taken.

I was really a mess.

I'm gonna go to jail.

I've killed somebody.

I'm going to jail.

He rings me up on the phone

he didn't identify himself.

Hello?

Man that must have been one

of your greatest hits ever.

It was Ben.

And I knew that,

that he was gonna live.

When he was flown to UCLA

they scanned his whole body

and they saw this

subdural hematoma.

in the brain

And he was bleeding to death

which is why he was acting

so crazy,

standing in the middle

of the road.

The Doctor said that he would

have been dead by 7:00 a.m.

from that aneurysm.

So the worst moment of my life

ended up being something

that weirdly saved his life.

- My goal when I go in the

studio with a singer is,

I believe in my head

that I'm gonna get a better

vocal out of this singer,

than he or she

has ever done before,

or ever will do again.

I got a tip that this young

singer was up in Canada.

She was already famous

in Quebec,

so I'm not taking any credit

for discovering her.

I flew to Montreal,

I drove 100 miles in the rain.

Céline: I was performing

in a tent.

The weather was awful,

but I could not believe

that David Foster

was going to come

and hear me sing that night.

I'm about to meet one of the

greatest producers of all time.

Tonight?

He came and he watched

the show,

and then we met after.

- When I heard her sing,

it was like that,

when you watch a movie,

and everything just goes...

It was her.

And her singing.

And it was just this phenomenal

thing, and I went,

Millions and millions of people

are gonna love this woman."

And they did.

You are truly remarkable.

with David Foster,

David: Brian Mulroney, the

was having a wedding

for his daughter.

He's saying,

you've gotta hear this guy

that's about to sing

at our wedding. He's amazing.

Brian: When we arrived at

the wedding, I said to David,

"David, I want you to listen

to this guy

who's gonna come up

and sing now."

- I said, "Oh great, great."

And he says, "Come on up to

the front, he's about to sing."

- Foster says to me,

"Prime Minister, look it,

this is what I do for a living.

I'm fed up with this."

- This guy walks out,

good-looking guy, right,

and he goes,

Everything closes in on him.

It's like in the movies,

was Michael Bublé.

under his arm,

"Look at this kid, David."

Brian: And I said no,

"I'm about to do you

the biggest favour

of your life."

He sounded like a cross between

Frank Sinatra and Bobby Darin.

- He was a crooner.

He could do the-the

fast tempos.

- Yeah, really.

He was quite--

- He was quite somebody.

Brian: I knew right away,

"I'm bringing you

to Los Angeles,

here's $5,000 to pay off

your bills,

you're moving into

my guest house,

until we make a record."

Michael: David came up to me,

he said,

"Hey, Mike man,

you got your own lane.

You wanna come down to LA?

Maybe we could work on

some stuff?"

I remember going home

that night,

calling my Grandpa,

jumping up and down

in the hallway,

because I had met, honestly,

one of the greatest ever,

has nothing to do with and...

gotta go to work.

- From this movie that

embarrassed Warner Bros.

and cost them a lot of money,

came this song

that has its own life

and is heard today.

It just found its way

into our popular culture.

David: It was the Grammys,

and Bocelli was not able

to make the rehearsal,

so I needed to find somebody

to do his part

on "The Prayer" with Céline,

for rehearsal.

So I called my friend,

Seth Riggs,

who's a great vocal coach.

- Middle, middle,

chest, chest,

middle, middle.

Head voice.

David: I said, "Seth,

do you have anybody

that happens to sound

like Andrea Bocelli?"

I got like 5 or 10 guys

He said, "Oh yeah,

that sound like him."

He sends me a cassette tape.

No windows, no light.

No vitamin D.

A submarine. That's where

I spent my life.

I don't wanna do that anymore.

I've always said about myself

I know where I belong

and where I don't belong,

in a room with Lady Gaga.

and I don't belong

- Bullshit!

I listen to "Shallow"... here's

what David Foster would do with

"Shallow". Of course you could

be in that room.

Yes, I would have said yes

to that.

If I have heard that song,

Bradley Cooper and Gaga,

"A Star is Born"

I would have done it.

50% I don't wanna be there,

and add.

50% I have nothing to say

If you could have another 50%

I'd say I'm bored with myself.

I am truly bored

with myself

and what I can do here.

I don't love this.

I love being out there.

Playing live has been great

for me and I'll tell you why.

I'm making the music,

and then the artist

has the luxury to go out

and enjoy what we've created

together

and-and watch the peoples faces

as they sing it.

I've never had that thrill.

So now when I go out

and play live

I get to watch their faces with

the music that I've created.

Even though, I didn't sing it.

I still created it.

I try to be great every day,

and I learned that

from Quincy Jones,

when I handed him an album,

from many, many years ago,

"Have a listen, but don't

listen to track 5

'cause it's outta tune,

and don't listen to track 2

because the song's

not that good,

and track 7,

just skip over that.

But there's like,

track 4 is really good."

And he said, "Gimme that

thing!" And he goes...

"What does it say right there?"

"Produced by David Fos--."

"Yeah, produced by

David Foster."

He said, "You give me something

with your name on it

and you make excuses for it?"

And since that day,

I have never, ever

not tried to be great

every day,

because good is the enemy

of great.

and respect.

Quincy: Love, trust,

Your music can never be more

or less

than you are as a human being.

That's the bottom line.

So you work on being a good

human being first,

but even before a good musician.

Jeffery: Success, hits,

fame, money, power,

all seemed like the things

that were driving him.

Then, when I got

to know him better,

I saw a totally

different person.

I always thought,

this is a man with a huge ego,

and yet, the amount of people

he's helped is extraordinary.

- I got a call from my mother,

30 years ago,

and she said,

"There's a young girl at UCLA,

go visit her."

She was all hooked up with

wires, she was five years old.

She needed a liver transplant.

I just asked her you know,

what would she like more than

anything in the world,

thinking she would say she

wants to go to Disneyland,

or that she wants to meet

whoever the star was

at the time.

And what she said was,

"I wanna see my sister."

For the price of an airline

ticket, flew the sister down.

And that moment,

when the two sisters' eyes met,

it's etched in my brain,

and that is the moment

when I went,

this is what I gotta do.

We help the families

of children

that need organ transplants,

and we take care of all

the costs,

and we are the one bright light

in the worst day

of a family's life.

Even a family that's doing well,

that are involved

can't absorb the costs

in trying to keep two

households going for weeks,

months, or even years sometimes,

and we pay all that.

It's hard work.

Oprah: I'm here tonight

to pay tribute,

to give honour,

and celebrate tonight's

honouree

of the David Foster Foundation.

- Tonight, we have raised...

$10.2 million!

Michael: There's definitely

a heart behind this man.

He feels deeply about making

a difference,

bringing together

and keeping together,

families of these children

who are fighting

for their lives.

Marc: Everybody's calling him,

and do my charity,

do my charity.

Not just David's charity,

everybody else's charity.

The first thing that comes out

of his mouth is, "Yes."

He's not afraid to pull on

his celebrity friends.

He would do everybody's

charities, and he has.

David: You know I had a friend

tell me recently,

he said, you've made some very

poor real estate decisions

based on the fact that you

haven't been on an elevator

for 30 some-odd years.

For a guy that likes to be in

control it must be annoying.

And people think that it's

like just some kind of a joke.

How do you push the button

to get it here?

I run into people and they go,

"Oh yeah,

I don't like elevators either,

you know".

Yeah, but you take them.

Oh my God.

It controls my life.

It's something that I,

I've tried to deal with

and never fixed,

and I probably never will.

Oh my God.

I calculated once,

how many stairs I've done.

Man: 10 seconds.

- No. No I can't do it.

Turns out, that I've done more

than 3 million stairs.

10 floors, man.

Does it get any easier.

recently,

I have had health scares

and my reaction is not

I don't give a shit.

My reaction is "crap".

Recently I have had

a tumour on my lung.

Thank God it was benign,

but I've had three surgeries.

♪♪♪

I also have a bicuspid

aortic valve,

which needs to be swapped out.

Which is a big five hour

surgery.

I think everybody is afraid

of death, aren't they?

It's the only

one unavoidable thing.

And it's the thing that

everybody is least prepared for.

Don't wanna leave the party.

Plain and simple.

It's exactly what it is.

- My dad always said,

if I'm a vegetable,

never pull the plug.

- Never.

you'll never pull it,

He's like promise me

let me just lie there.

We're like--

- He's the person--

- He's gonna wanna be frozen.

- He's the person who'll get

frozen, for sure,

so he would come back.

He loves living.

- Hi, baby.

- Hi.

- So, welcome

to my reality show.

about how

- Were you just talking

we have a FaceTime

relationship?

- I was not talking about that,

although we do have

a FaceTime relationship.

- I'll get better, I promise.

- I'll call you from the hotel?

All right.

- Okay.

- Love you.

- Bye. I love you.

David: Well, I certainly don't

wanna drop dead in the studio,

because that would just be

too ironic.

I don't wanna be working

the day I die.

I wanna be like,

on a boat somewhere,

laying in the sun,

have a nice little glass

of wine beside me.

Go to sleep and not wake up.

Katharine: I've never met

anyone

who is more focused

on the idea of longevity.

He is, more than anyone,

obsessed with staying

on this earth.

Amy: He can't sit still.

He's not capable of staying

out of the game.

Amy: And I think he

is in search of

that perfect something

that will make him finally stop

feeling the need

to move all the time.

- He's got a real sense of

how things should be presented

to have real impact on people.

He's no embarrassed to be big

and flashy and brassy -

he's lived life to the fullest.

- His legacy will keep going

even though he might not think

so 'cause he's still great.

Carole: And he hasn't learned

how to say 'no' yet.

It's probably the good news.

Maybe not for him,

but for all of us.

- He deserve that honour,

this legacy.

I feel very privileged

as an artist

that has the chance

to work with him.

Those big songs will never

disappear. Never.

Andrea: David said that I am

the best singer of the planet.

I can say the same thing

for him.

He's the best producer

of the planet.

Peter: If you look

at the number of people

that he's had success with,

I think that's a legacy enough.

The stable of artists

that he's worked with,

recorded with,

and had enormous success with,

and I'm just lucky enough

to be a small part of it.

Michael: He's a complex,

distinct,

and amazing human being.

There are so many parts

of him that I'll never know,

of him

and there are so many parts

that I wish

the whole world knew.

Clive: David Foster is one

of the greatest producers

of all time, without question.

David has received

47 Grammy nominations.

You've gotta be careful

with somebody

who's had a great deal

of success,

to stereotype that,

to typecast that,

to say oh,

that is what he can do.

- We're very funny together,

I would say.

But I put up with him because,

as he frequently reminds me,

he's so brilliant.

And you know what? He is.

Quincy: All I can say is,

David, is YOLO KOKO -

you only live once,

so keep on, keepin' on, man.

and learning this,

Keep on struggling with this,

and learning this, and growing.

David: If Mozart actually

did in fact say

that he never thought he

completed a perfect work,

then what chance do the rest

of us stand?

I'm driven by the need

to succeed.

I will drive myself

into the ground

trying to have a hit Broadway

musical,

and it may or may not happen,

but it won't be for lack

of trying.
