I Didn't Want To Be

I Don't Follow Any Of What The Pop World Is Doing. Sometimes I Feel Like That's A Weakness, Actually, That I'm Too In My Own Bubble. But I'm Really Just Interested In The Inner Journey. And Pop Is All About The Exterior World, The Material.

I'm Not A Virtuoso On An Instrument. You Know, I'm Not Always Singing In Pitch. I Laugh Sometimes My Way Through The Shows, But I'm An Honest Songwriter Who's Always Tried To Bring The Audience With Me On My Journey In Hopes That They See Their Own Lives Reflected In The Work.

The Foolish Idea That My Music Can Actually Make A Difference In Someone's Life - That Right There Is Proof That It's Working. It Makes Me Feel Great, It Really Does.

If I Were To Lose My Memories, I Would Rely On Music. There Is So Much Of My Story Embedded In Each.

You Come Out Of A Store And They Give You Seventy-five Cents Change Or Something, Rather Than Drop It I Would Always Place It In The Community. Sometimes I'd Flip It Into The Hat Of A Busker Or Give It To A Homeless Person. But What I Most Enjoyed Was Putting It On A Windowsill Or On A Bench Seat Or Somewhere Where I Knew That The Community Would Get It.
