I Think In A Way I Was

Emerson, Lake & Palmer Or King Crimson Or Gentle Giant - The Worst Prog Rock References I Can Come Up With. Though I Totally Loved Those Groups As A Kid.

I Privilege The Music Over The Lyrics

And Frankly, When I Made That Record, Hit Songs Were Not What I Was Trying To Achieve.

I Also Wanted To Make A Record That Was About Other Things Than Romance, Yeah, After Two Years On The Road Singing All The Songs From The First Album, I Got Kind Of Tired Of That.

So I Started Chanting When I Was Nineteen, Which Was About Twelve Years Ago, And It Really Had A Huge Impact On My Outlook, Happiness, And General Creativity.
