    This song was also in a mall scene in season three of Stranger Things and he’s a big fan of the show Howard has been a Buddhist for many years. Very positive and happy man.

    From his first album: What Is Love?, New Song, Hide & Seek, Pearl In The Shell are all musts! From this album (Dream Into Action): No One To Blame, Life In One Day.
    From Cross That Line: Everlasting Love (awesome track!), The Prisoner.
    And something from the 2000's - The Human Touch (from 2013 - it's absolute FIRE!!)
