AUG 26 08 | What's new with me! | | I've had a lovely week off from tour in Santa Monica. There's nothing like the ocean breeze for the inspiration it blows the soul. I love it! So yesterday I went to the hotel café and saw Terra Naomi play. She is wonderful. Check out her Myspace. Her Incredible voice is matched by her likable personality and her lyrics are deep!I'm getting the writing bug again. When I get off tour I always feel like I wake up from some sort of world I've been dreaming.Touring, fun as it is, takes up a lot of energy because of the amount of work it takes to adjust to the different places you find yourself in from day to day. It's harder to stay in touch with what's happening everywhere else in the world. I'm just explaining why its been so long since I last blogged.I'm very glad that one of my favourite new bands, The Script, is doing so well in the UK charts. Congrats to them and look out for them if you haven't heard them already.Other Albums to check out if you get the urge:Brooke Fraser: Albertine. It's incredible music.Sia: Some People Have Real Problems. She's excellentJessica Simpson: Do You Know. I'm not joking, look out for this one. I heard some of her new album and I was blown away. Country music is what Jess should have been doing all along. When she sings these songs you feel them.Coldplay: Viva la Vida. I love this new album.QUOTE OF THE DAY: 'CRAZY ONES'Here's to the crazy ones. The misfits. The rebels. The troublemakers. The round pegs in the square holes. The ones who see things differently. They're not fond of rules. And they have no respect for the status quo. You can praise them, disagree with them, quote them, disbelieve them, glorify or vilify them. About the only thing you can't do is ignore them. Because they change things. They invent. They imagine. They heal. They explore. They create. They inspire. They push the human race forward. Maybe they have to be crazy.How else can you stare at an empty canvas and see a work of art? Or sit in silence and hear a song that's never been written? Or gaze at a red planet and see a laboratory on wheels?We make tools for these kinds of people. While some see them as the crazy ones, we see genius. Because the people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world, are the ones who do.
