My music is about a joyful experience. I've learned that if you can affect other people, you should.

I've always wondered what it would be like if somebody from outer space landed with three heads. Then all of a sudden everybody else wouldn't look so bad, huh? Well, OK you're a little different from me but, hey, ya got one head.

I get the greatest feeling when I'm singing. It's other-worldly. Your feet are anchored into the Earth and into this energy force that comes up through your feet and goes up the top of your head and maybe you're holding hands with the angels or the stars, I have no idea.

My career never went like anyone else’s, so I never followed anyone.

I've always felt, even as a songwriter, that the rhythm of speech is in itself a language for me.

I lose faith and I lose ground, but then I see you and remember unconditional love.

The more you practice and study, the better you are so I still practice and study all the time.
