I Was So Deeply Involved In Music,

I Feel The Presence Of A Higher Power. I Believe That What You Give Is What You Get. It's Universal Law. I Believe In The Power Of Prayer And Of Words. I've Learned That When You Predict That Negative Things Will Happen, They Do.

I'm Inspired By Artists And Musicians. There Are So Many Wonderful And Talented People In The World. I Love Discovering New Music, New Writers, Or New Art.

I've Been Able To Find A Lot Of What I've Not Had Before: Freedom, Bravery, Fearlessness. It's Empowering To Find Those Things.

I'm The Cofounder Of Keep A Child Alive. We Provide Medicine For Families Affected By Hiv And Aids In Places Like Africa And India.

Even When I'm Singing On Record There's A Lot Of Times When I'll Fight For A Bit Of Imperfection. I Might Not Have Quite Hit The Note To The Perfect Pitch, But There Was A Soul In There And Feeling That,to Me, Delivers The Emotion Of That Moment. For Me, Doing A Show, The Excitement Of Singing Live, And The Possibility That You're Not Going To Be Perfect - That's The Thrill Of It.
