You can turn off the sun, but I'm still gonna shine

In the words of Michael Jackson: I'm a lover, not a fighter.

How we treat food is how we treat ourselves. Eating and buying organic means we're committed to a healthier world overall. It's good karma.

It was a very bizarre experience for me, to get the songs together, go in there, and try to deliver them as I would perhaps in a live setting. But I realized that I couldn't take on that coffeehouse style that I came from and go in there and burn it up.

The power of the masses can influence any government in the world. The power of the masses can elect an official, start a revolution, and drive history. Nelson Mandela did it alone from his prison cell. Ghandi did it lying down. Egypt did it singing songs.

I had never made a record before, so I didn't know anything about it. I don't know anything about knobs, frequencies, tones.

In my lifetime, I want to see humanity start being conscious of our waste, the things we buy, and how we can reuse and recycle things. I want people to live harmoniously with our planet. I hope everybody wakes up and appreciates life.
