I Would Take Songs That I'd Loved

Get Rhythm When You Get The Blues.

We [with Rick Rubin] Would Focus On The Ones That We Did Like, That Felt Right And Sounded Right. And If I Didn't Like The Performance On That Song, I Would Keep Trying It And Do Take After Take Until It Felt Comfortable With Me And Felt That It Was Coming Out Of Me And My Guitar And My Voice As One, That It Was Right For My Soul.

I'm Thankful For The Sea Breeze That Feels So Good Right Now, And The Scent Of Jasmine When The Sun Starts Going Down.

I Sang Those Old Gospel Songs For My Mother, And She Said, Is That You? And I Said, Yes, Ma'am. And She Came Over And Put Her Arms Around Me And Said, God's Got His Hands On You.

I Knew That When I Left There At The Age Of 18, I Wouldn't Be Back. And It Was Common Knowledge Among All The People There That When You Graduate From High School Here, You Go To College Or Go Get A Job Or Something And Do It On Your Own.
