All time favorite song: “Magic In The Air,” a song I wrote while on tour in Japan after seeing Mt. Fuji appear like magic in the air
Happiest moment: Every moment is my happiest moment
Funeral music: “I’ll Be Seeing You”
Last thing that made me stop and think: I was taking the short boat ride to the Oriental Bangkok gym facilities on the other side of the river and I thought, what a beautiful place and, yes, I am in Bangkok
