You have to write badly to write at all. If it's crappy, I will rewrite it later. But it will be mine. You can hear the resonance of an artist who goes into herself.

Love travels, the miles, upon the wings of angels. Love finds you, I swear it's true, and I will love you from here.

When you keep the caliber of musicians very high in the band, people are going to come and go. Some of them will be people who have to try various things, it's natural.

A gourmet meal without a glass of wine just seems tragic to me somehow.
