Def one of my favorite babies, and represented me taking back my career and life from the major label deal that was ruining both at the time. Always grateful for where this one took me.

I was still on cable TV every week when that record came out and I had been for over half a decade at that point. It was super weird because I had all of these huge opportunities but was struggling just to live each day and also survive the insanely unpleasant experience of having no privacy in early addiction recovery. It sucked. And that ultimately had a lot to do with me blowing the thing up. It was not my most graceful moment, but I would save myself again a thousand times over.

Finally getting out of that deal was one of the happiest moments in my life. That’s all I think about when I listen to the songs on that record. They all just sound like GAY FREEDOM. Every good thing that has happened in my life and career in these 15 years since has happened because of the brave shit I did in 2010.

Sometimes people will think you are crazy for doing what feels right. Let them! ❤️ It doesn’t make you any less right.

Anyway, go stream my back catalog if you like gay people.
