I'm always sort of reflecting on what I do on what I've done. Usually before I make a new album, I'll listen to the previous albums just to see where I've been.

I'm looking forward to going out at the concert with a clear head, with a clear mind, with a clear spirit and experiencing whatever it is. It's great.

I just feel so good; it feels like a very creative time for me. As far as my mind, spirit, and body, I've never felt better.

My mother gave lots of good advice and had a lot to say. As you get older, you realize everything she said was true.

I've been compared to hundreds of artists, which just goes to show you that I'm not any one thing at all.

I was always talking about peace and love, even when I was a kid. That's how I grew up in my family.

I found it a really refreshing change of pace to suddenly be completely directed. It was a type of collaboration that I don't normally have.
