I've always listened to jazz or folk or blues. I was always listening to the prophets. I don't really go for...I don't know how to say anything about the singles scene without slamming people.

If you're putting somebody down, you're doing it because you're just seeing a part of yourself that you don't like. That's all that is.

You can't stop us on the road to freedom, you can't stop us cause our eyes can see.

The Eternal Kansas City song came from a dream sequence. It was actually kind of weird. I had this dream about a Kansas City type of thing while I was up at Stevie Winwood's place near Cheltenham, in Britain. I went into this small town and I was walking along and this dream thing was still in my head.

At the end of the day, we should give thanks and pray, to the one, to the one.

I wanted to find out why I wasn't getting off on what I was doing and try and make some sense out of the evolution of it.

That's the jazz that I like - the stuff that has a soothing effect.
