Right now in the studio we're working on Sky God. This is a new song I wrote after I saw that movie with Mandy Moore in it where she plays a Christian fundamentalist girl. I was inspired to write a song from the perspective of her character. So, I wrote Sky God, mostly sincere, actually. Just envying (loosely) the simplicity of a mythic belief system that has all the answers pre-fab.

Eddie Kowalczyk (Buddha front man of Live) came in last night. We had Miracle all ready, and sure enough, Eddie arrived and in about an hour knocked it OUT of the astronomical park. Can't say how much it has meant to me to be working with him. His giving, gracious nature (and it goes without saying charisma + talent!) has absolutely blown me away. He's done this twice now. A year ago, we tried to put this song on my album ¿What. We just couldn't hear it. Sitting next to the songs in that collection, it didn't make sense to us.
