If you go back to all my albums, they're all confessional.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I'm not embarrassed by any of my music. I'll even own up to the old Backstreet Boys albums.
A confession has to be part of your new life.
All confessions are Odysseys.
In the past, I've been a bit diffident about my own albums, almost excusing them for some reason, even though deep down I felt strongly about them.
I think that all my albums are different enough where I don't feel like I did this the last time.
Don't get me wrong, I love my first two albums a lot.
Confession has been my habitual homecoming since I was a child. It is a consolation and a joy, and such joy, our faith teaches us, is meant for everyone. It is our vocation to bring it to as many people as possible.
I have a lot of albums yet to do.
I'll probably never put out another album because I'm a tough critic of my work, and I don't think I could come up to those standards any more.
Not that there is anything wrong with confessional songwriting, there are plenty of people that do that I admire. I think it is great, it just isn't how I do things.
