Be as radiant as the sun, as healing as the rain, as generous as a tree.

I'm a news junkie who's constantly reading newspapers and magazines. I look around and see what's happening in the world.

I always know when a song is good or close to finished. When I sing it, it makes me feel the emotion. My tears will start flowing or I'll start laughing. I'll start feeling whatever intensity or emotion was the seed of that song.

Music gets us in touch with our emotions in a way that's more intimate than any other art form.

It's that transformative nature of love and music and yoga that really inspires me.

Music is also one of the great heart openers. Sometimes, you hear the lyrics of a song and you dance, laugh, smile, or perhaps even cry.

If you love the planet or the neighborhood - you're finding ways to satisfy the soul of the planet or satisfy the soul of the neighborhood.
