As he gears up for his Australian tour, American crooner Chris Isaak says he's hopeful of finding love soon.
The singer-songwriter has many women admirers all over the world, but finding love hasn't been so easy.
Nevertheless, the single 52-year-old isn't giving up.
"I'm not in a relationship but I'm fixing up my house and I'm getting my yard fixed up," Isaak told AAP from the US on Tuesday.
"I figure if I fix my house the women will come.
"If I get a kitchen that's really nice, I figure then a woman will come. So I'm right in there trying."
Isaak's new album, Mr Lucky, which will be released on February 27, includes many songs about heartbreak and lost love, mixed with a few upbeat tracks, in his trademark style.
"A lot of the songs are heart broken love sick songs, in my life at least a lot of it's been like that," Isaak said.
"But Mr Lucky is kind of like a spin on that.
"In real life I do think of myself in many ways as being very lucky.
"I found a job that I love to do and it doesn't hurt anybody.
"My mother and father are still married and still alive and my brothers and I are all on good terms."
Isaak says many of the songs were inspired by his own life, but others have been inspired by his parents, and other people around him.
Having released his first album in 1985, Isaak credits his longevity to his great band, and credits his youthful looks to his healthy lifestyle.
"I never smoked a cigarette in my life, I never smoked pot in my life, I never took a drug that a doctor didn't give me," Isaak says.
"And I spend more time in the water surfing and a lot less time in bars and nightclubs if I'm not working.
"When you're 20 you can do anything but when you get to do 35 or 40 boy it starts showing."
For now, Isaak's focus is on Australia, where he's about to kick off a national tour.
It comes after a visit to the country late last year.
With a huge local fan base, Isaak is considered a bit of an honorary Aussie, and says he couldn't be happier.
"When you first go to a country, after a while you start to make up your mind if you really like it or not," Isaak said.
"We loved Australia from the first time we went there and the more we've gone there the more we've liked it."
Isaak he was devastated about the Victorian fires and hopes to be involved with some music benefits while in the country.
"We're over here and we're reading the papers about the fires and it's just horrible," he said.
"You just feel hollow - what a complete waste. People's lives ruined."
Isaak's tour kicks off on March 7 at Leeuwin Estate in Western Australia before heading to Melbourne, the Barossa Valley in South Australia, Sutton Grange Winery in Victoria, Canberra, Wollongong, Sydney and the Hunter Valley in NSW.
He'll wrap up the tour in Brisbane on March 22.

thanks for the great post! that was good to read. very interesting.

Personally, I'd like to see the kitchen....as is.

I just don't get how he can't find love!! Maybe he's very picky or a total player. Jeez...just let me get a quickie divorce and I'll get the first flight out. Think he'd mind if I bought along the three kids and psycho dog? A girl can dream...

Oh, Wildflower....

I hope Chris doesn't mess with his kitchen too much. As I recall, the photos of it looked really cool.

hahahahahha

if i fix my kitchen they will come! which kitchen in which house?

hahahhahhahha

and if we do come by, he will probably call the police!

Too funny!!

I bet he gets alot of kitchen comments at the meet and greets now...haha! He's got to have somebody, is my feeling.

The psycho dog...

Okay WAIT! I'm completely single....and I like to COOK and CLEAN.

I'm fucking there man, ugly kitchen or not!

I wonder how Sheryl feels about that statement.

Chris, we still love you even if you have a girl. You don't have to front.
