In This Society, We Don't Like To Face The Future And The Dying Process And All Of It. Most Of Us Really Don't Want To Think About It, But It's Facing Me In The Mirror Every Day.

It Sounds Corny, But It's Absolutely True: A Song Chooses Me. I Don't Go Looking For A Certain Kind Of Lyric. It Kind Of Develops Its Own Little Arc And I'll Just See What Happens.

I Wasn't Popular In School, I Was Mexican, I Was All These Inappropriate Things. I Started Playing The Ukulele And Taking It To School, And I Realized People Liked Listening To It. I Would Play It To Comfort Myself At Home, And I'd Play Rhythm And Blues Songs That Had Four Chords. That's How It Started.

I Love The Lower Ranges Of My New Voice. I Really Enjoy That. It's A Challenge, And I Accept The Challenge. I Sort Of Enjoy It Now To Reach Notes That Maybe Four Years Ago I Couldn't Reach. I Don't Mean To Grumble About It. I'm Past That Critical Period And Have Gone On To A Whole New Field. And We Go Everywhere. We Travel Around The World, And I Learn Songs From Every Place We Go, And It's A Joyful Process.
