Song Quotes

There is truth in little corners of our lives. There are hints of it in songs and children’s eyes. It’s familiar, like an ancient lullaby; What do I live for? If we’ve eyes to see… If we’ve ears to hear… To find it in our hearts and mouths the word that saves is near. Shed that shallow skin… Come and live again… Leave all you were before… To believe is to begin.

Obviously, it was a big life change for me and quite a shock to suddenly have these songs I’d written in my bedroom as a far-too-intense teenager all over the airwaves and see my face on buses, especially in a small country like New Zealand, but at the same time it was such a thrill and an honour knowing that my music was reaching people.

Peter stood, cleared his throat, and began to hum softly, then sing, slowly building up the song as his voice cleared. He found the old tune, the song of the Sunbird. And as he sung, as his rich voice echoed off the tall cliffs, the birds and the faeries lent him their voice and soon the tune drifted throughtout the garden.

I think that people want to go to the movies and watch shows on TV or in theaters that make them feel good and music really does that. Not only can you watch something and connect to dialogue, but when you listen to a song, it gives a whole other element of connection and you get that feeling like you want to stand up and dance and sing.

My favourite song is Someone To Love. That is more like me than the other stuff, as it was the only one I was actually able to create from the bottom up. I call it an homage, not a remake. It is an homage to Freddie Mercury, because I don’t think people can really remake Freddie Mercury. That’s why we did a gospel version.
