An Eye For An Eye Til Everyone

Dance Like Nobody's Watching.

There Is A String Attached To Maia Sharp's Voice. And When She Sings, You Find That The Other End Is Attached To Your Gut. Her Voice Is Lush And Sensual And The Emotions She Articulates Resonate With The Small Feelings We Have That Sometimes Are Hard To Face..there Is An Edge To Her Songs, But Also A Softness...she Is Lyrical And Conversational At The Same Time. Her Cd Was The Only One In My Machine For A Month. Her Work Inspires Me To Dig Deeper.

That's The Great Paradox Of Living On This Earth, That In The Midst Of Great Pain You Can Have Great Joy As Well. If We Didn't Have Those Things We'd Just Be Numb.

Or If I Have My Head In The Results, I Can't Work With What I Have, Because I'm Trying To Force Something To Happen. And With Singing, Any Time You Force It, You Tighten Up. If You Tighten Up, You're Screwed, Nothing Will Work.

I've Come To Understand My Role. On Some Level, I Provide The Context For Them To Shine. I Also Know My Role Is The Steward Of The Songs, And The Center Point, The Artist That The Stuff All Revolves Around. But I Really Try To Honor That.
