Right Now, Half The World

My Husband Doesn't Know What My Songs Are About - Even When They're About Him. He's Very British In That Way. He Doesn't Ask, And He Doesn't Want To Be Told.

My Mother Says I Was Two-and-a-half When I Started Playing. My Father Was A Minister, And When He Went To Church In The Morning, She Would Put On Fats Waller, Billie Holiday, Nat King Cole And Cole Porter Records. I'd Crawl Up On The Piano Stool, Sit On A Phone Book And Play.

Where We Focus Our Energy Is Where We Will Get The Results.

Right Now, Half The World Is Depressed And They Need To Be Entertained.
