When I create music, the feeling that you get... I get first. You [the listener] have a delayed experience with the feeling I initially get when I have a creative insight. Not just the voice, but all the creativity - the production, the idea, the concept, the music involved. There is a high. There is an emotional experience that happens when everything comes together... I made music as consistently as I did, especially back in the day, because it made me feel so good... When everything is on, it's a wonderful feeling.

Ofttimes lying at our feet,
And we pass them, walking thoughtless,
Down the busy, crowded street.

We would step more oft with care,
Lest our careless feet be treading
To the earth some jewel rare.
