A lot of songs are inspiration and help people through pain, grief and loss.

My father is doing a radio program - classical music. He has a beautiful speaking voice and that's his passion in life, his music. My mother lives in Melbourne and is an avid photographer. She's also started writing for a magazine out there and she submits poems, very funny ones, and articles. In some way or other, my family is always doing something with the media.

The idea is to encourage men to go with their wives and screen. So, if the wife is going to go and do her screening, then the man can go and do his baseline screening, too. Men need to be aware of the health of their bodies, as well - prostate cancer and breast cancer are almost on the same level.

To me luxury is to be at home with my daughter, and the occasional massage doesn't hurt.

I really love performing with an orchestra and am very excited to do so with the Kalamazoo Symphony.

I would not be comfortable appearing in a country where they have permitted the destruction of such beautiful and intelligent animals.

We wake up and are grateful for the day. Not taking away from the pain, because the pain will be there. But you live on.
