I Think God Has A Plan For

I Came Upon Diana Krall's Jazz Arrangement Of "a Case Of You" Several Years Back. I've Always Wanted To Pay Homage To Both Her Version And Joni's, And By Proxy, My Mom. She's The One That Introduced Me To That Music.

A Few Years Ago, When I Was Writing Songs For My First Album, I Was Staying With Michael Feinstein As I Often Did. I Was Working On A Pilot. My Grandma Was Very Sick At The Time. She Died Of Complications From Alcoholism. She Always Used To Say [in His Grandma's Voice], "red Wine Is Good For My Heart. That's What My Doctor Said." And We'd Say, "yeah, But Not For Breakfast." Unfortunately, It Was The Thing That Killed Her. I Felt Inspired To Write A Song About Her And What That Meant For Her Life And For All Of Us. I Was Writing It In Michael's House.

I'd Love To Be Able To Be Invisible, Because I Like To Eavesdrop.

People May Have Said, "the Dude's Gay; How Are We Going To Market This?" But It's Not An Issue For Me, Because Being Out Is Very Freeing.

I Think Having A Dog Makes You More Compassionate.
