“I gave away the money advanced from my record company on my first album, I'm the type of person who likes to give. I gave to my sister.

“Our whole intention was to make a record of songs that we grew up with and change them up a little bit, but we kind of stumbled on writing "Joseph's Lullaby." The irony is when I originally wrote the song, it was called "Mary's Lullaby." I wrote it from Mary's standpoint and it was in a higher key, a real falsetto, and it just wasn't right. One day, the producer's wife said, "Well, it's kind of odd that you're singing from Mary's perspective, being the guy. Why don't you do Joseph?” WritingWellsKindLittlesSaidRealWholeGuySongBitsRecordsWifePerspectiveKeysGrewHigherOne DayLittle BitGrew UpSingingIntentionProducersIronyOddMaryStandpointLullabyFalsetto Author:Bart Millard
“Everything is starting to make a little more sense to me now. I love the idea that, first of all when I made the record I don't look at the music by classifying it. People have a problem classifying me as pop, or rock, or folk, or alt. The beauty for me is that a thirteen year old girl can fall in love with the record and so can her mom. I tend to gravitate towards artists that are timeless and don't sound dated.” PeopleYearsFirstsLooksLittlesMadeIdeasProblemArtistFallGirlSoundRecordsRocksMomFalling In LoveStartingFolksPopsTimelessThirteenThirteen Year OldsClassifying Author:Courtney Jaye
