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

I've been overweight all my life.

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

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

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.

My hope is that out of all the anger and seeming hostility that we hear in some of today's music will come some sort of coalition that will become politically involved.

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