My songs emerge from my life, or wherever they do, unbidden and unplanned and completely on a schedule of their own.

Sailing became one of the mainstreams of my life. I suppose my father was an influence. I remember seeing a photo of him at home sailing a big boat to Bermuda in his 20s. I still have it.

My life and career is my own adventure.

Freedom carries sacrifice,

I have a pretty clear picture of the whole weight of my life, and there are things that I've done that are good, and I'm proud of them. There are things that I'm really not proud of, and that they, you have to look at me with a perspective, and I try really hard to do that, to keep from thinking I'm cool and ever so smart.

I've got a hectic schedule, but I wouldn't have my life any other way.
