And I was really saying that no matter how bad things are there is always a calm after a storm, so don't give up on things.

Sometimes I'd hear things on other people's records and I say I wanted it on my records, but Leslie Kong said, no, it wasn't right and that it wasn't my style.

So, after school, I needed to learn a trade and started to work as a tailor.

Then my mother was taken ill and died and my father took me to St. Mary's.

Things will get better if you just hold out long enough.

I don't write about the same thing every time, everyday, different things are happening out there and if you take the time to look around, you can see that, then you can put it all together and tell the story.

I like to write songs about what's happening, what I see around me and what I hear. Everyday life. Someone may be talking to me and I may take it from that.
