Like a blazing comet, I've traversed infinite nights, interstellar spaces of the imagination, voluptuousness and fear.

I am sensible of the velocity of the moments, and entering that part of my head alert to the motion of the world I am aware that life was never perfect, never absolute. This bestows contentment, even a fearlessness.

I don't feel invincible because I'm human.

I do understand that onstage there are times when you think, 'I could not be more alive than I am at this moment. I can't do most things in life. This is what I'm for.'

I suddenly got used to that feeling of being in control, which I never, ever feel when I'm not onstage - a feeling that you're the master of your own universe.

It's in every person's life, around 27 to 29 years old, the stars and the planets align themselves to exactly the way they were when you were born. You're faced with yourself. There's no running away.

Just think: in all the clean, beautiful reaches of the solar system, our planet alone is a blot; our planet alone has death.

I am God's vessel. But my greatest pain in life is that I will never be able to see myself perform live.

Now is now, and I live everything one day at a time. The fact that I'm still on the planet and able to still make music is such a miracle.
