There's a river somewhere that flows through the lives of everyone.

I've been overweight all my life.

The first time ever I saw your face I thought the sun rose in your eyes

I didn't know how well my first album had done; it was enough to get me to do the second album, which was a continuation of the music I'd worked on and perfected.

So see every opportunity as golden, and keep your eyes on the prize - yours, not anybody else's.

Remember: Always walk in the light. And if you feel like you're not walking in it, go find it. Love the light.

A song to me is a very tangible thing. I can feel it with my hands and see it with my eyes.
