Stop Your Ears And Close Your Eyes

It's Like A Novelist Writing Far Out Things. If It Makes A Point And Makes Sense, Then People Like To Read That. But If It's Off In Left Field And Goes Over The Edge, You Lose It. The Same With Musical Talent, I Think.

I'm Thankful For A Pair Of Shoes That Feel Really Good On My Feet; I Like My Shoes. I'm Thankful For The Birds; I Feel Like They're Singing Just For Me When I Get Up In The Morning... Saying, 'good Morning, John. You Made It, John.' I'm Thankful For The Sea Breeze That Feels So Good Right Now, And The Scent Of Jasmine When The Sun Starts Going Down. I'm Thankful.

You Build On Failure. You Use It As A Stepping Stone. Close The Door On The Past. You Don't Try To Forget The Mistakes, But You Don't Dwell On It. You Don't Let It Have Any Of Your Energy, Or Any Of Your Time, Or Any Of Your Space.

I've Got No Deep Voice Today. I've Got A Cold. But When I Was Young, I Had A High Tenor Voice.

I Knew I Wanted To Sing When I Was A Very Small Boy. When I Was Probably 4 Years Old. My Mother Played A Guitar And I Would Sit With Her And She Would Sing And I Learned To Sing Along With Her.
