Um, well, I made a new CD called 'Dream With Me' and it's out now, and I'm really excited about it.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
It's nice to finally have a CD out which reflects my songwriting, my singing and the band that I have.
Singing is my dream and, while it may have not been a commercial success, critically I was thrilled with the reception my first album got.
I think a lot of my dreams have come true, and my next dream is to have a No. 1 selling album. A Grammy-award-winning album.
I think I'm going to put together a compilation under Disney's name of my songs that I've done for them - because I've done six or seven by now! The latest was for the Princess Diaries 2 soundtrack. So that's the next thing that's coming out.
My original dream was to become a singer-songwriter, so I sent a video of myself playing the piano and singing to all the big agencies.
I am always most excited about the newest material I am doing, and other songs get put back on the shelf or dropped.
Surprise, surprise! I have a band! I'm really excited that we have a song on the soundtrack of 'American Reunion' for that very reason.
I had no idea 'The Dream Weaver' would be so successful. Everything just fell into place with that album. I pioneered a number of ideas with that album and subsequent tour. The all-keyboard approach with no guitars was a new one, and I was one of the first to use a drum machine in concert. It was an amazing time.
I'm working on my new album right now. Hopefully to get that out at the top of 2005, January 2005.
Who really needs a new album from me?
