I'm A Songwriter First.

I Write Heavily Under The Influence Of James Taylor.

The Writing Of You've Got A Friend Was One Of The Most Incredible Experiences Because It Was Mostly Inspiration. It Just Came To Me Almost As We Hear It.

I Went To London And Performed In Eric Clapton's Concert At The Royal Albert Hall. I'll Work With Him Any Time He Asks Me.

I Just Sort Of Try To Be A Good Person; Try To Write Music That Lifts People And Makes Me Feel Good To Sing.

That's One Of The Things I Love About Being A Songwriter First, Last And Always, Because Whether I Do It Or Not, If Someone Does A Great Job On It, My Work Is Done.
