Michael's the ultimate entertainer. After Michael Jackson, it's Elvis Presley, Frank Sinatra, and Bruce Lee.
I started doing standup when I was in college, and I would incorporate a lot of characters into my act.
When I listen to songs, I can smell a rat. I like songs that speak to me with some deeper truth.
We are the rebels asking for the storm, and believing that truth is only to be found in an endless search. If the 'World Spirit' touches you, do not expect that it will be painless.
