We all hope to be "Forever Young" like rocker Rod Stewart.

The raspy-voiced music icon looks amazing at 65 and he's still churning out hits as he makes way back on the charts with a new album, "Fly Me to the Moon ...The Great American Songbook: Volume V."

Stewart caught up with our friends over at PopEater to talk about his his shift from rock to standards, those "always standing up" locks, and his world being full of blondes including pregnant wife, Penny Lancaster.

Ever think 20 years ago you'd be doing so many standards albums?
Well they've always been very much a part of my life, like everybody else. I sort of grew up with them, my parents played them, and they're sort of the background of your life. I would always sing them any chance I got and I said to my record company 20 years ago I'd like to do a standards album but they laughed at me. But I don't think I was ready to do it anyway. With the voice the way it is, it's matured. I caress the songs a lot better than I would have 20 years ago.

Does it take you a long time to do your hair in the morning?
I don't usually do it in the morning. If I'm not going anywhere I just leave it as it is. It's always standing up. I usually do it in the evening if I'm going out. It's all still mine and it's all still there. Very little gray, I'm very lucky. I guess it's because I'm in a stress free business, I don't have to get up and go to work every day. That's the only thing I can put it down to.

That and lots of pretty blondes.
Apart from my children there are no more pretty blondes.

And your wife!
Of course my wife, that goes without saying.

As a brunette I was always a little hurt that you were only involved with blondes.
When I was a kid there was Jayne Mansfield, Brigitte Bardot, and Marilyn Monroe. I thought the world was full of blondes.

For the rest of the interview where Stewart dishes on the recent hub-ub about the daughter he gave up for adoption and how he's "closing up the office" after his eighth child is born next year, head over to PopEater.com.
