Music is an art form that doesn't need to be explained. It needs to be performed; it needs to be felt; it needs to be listened to; it needs to progress.

Music comes first from my heart, and then goes upstairs to my head where I check it out.

I have been on diets that were supervised by doctors, that were carefully supervised where I lost weight.

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.

Strumming my pain with his fingers, singing my life with his words, killing me softly with his song.

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