    Their bond is so tight. Every video I've seen of them the looks she gives him shows how strong their connection is. She stuck by him through addiction to sobriety. That takes true love.

    I just discovered him last week. I have listened to him for an hour or so each day. The depth of his songwriting is wonderful. This man is one of the great ones.

    If you can say so much with so few words, songwriting is the only logical option. He's breathtakingly brilliant in his elaborate simplicity.

    • @Caveman1003
      @Caveman1003 Před 10 lety +22

      I used to be bummed he left DBT too but now I see his talent is just too much to be held within a band. I never thought his solo stuff would be THIS good, this deep, soul searching, spine tingling artistry. He needed to be on is own to become who he is.
