In his own words (from his myspace page):
“For me it’s all about the SONG. I remember watching my father sitting at our dining room table for hours and hours with his pencil and pad crafting his songs; spending the time to find the perfect word, the perfect chord, the perfect melody. That really made an impression on me. When I write a song it really is a kind of science, an operation; but it isn’t mathematical or calculated, it is alive and breathing and moving. At the risk of sounding like a hippie on a soapbox, music is still powerful and holy and sacred to me. You can turn it into a product and a business, but you can’t start it that way. To me the genesis of a song has to be honest and unassuming. I truly believe that God hands me these gifts and it is my job to translate them as honestly as I can. You have to let a song be what it is. We can’t lose that. When I write songs, I like to focus on the fact that we are all the same and we are all just searching for answers and trying to make sense of everything. It's about exploring life and celebrating truth when you find it.”

Not many can tell a story like you Sean. VERY few. I have lived through every word. And not just in this song.
@Lordfartpod12
Sometimes I get frustrated you aren't more popular then other artists that aren't even as close to as talented as you but luckily you sing about the truth, it's beautiful, no drugs, alcohol, partys, women of the night, it's just good honest music and we are thankful you are here producing music we can relate to, thank you and keep doing what your doing! My favorite artist out there, been a fan since your first videos on "music fog"
@seanheenan2464
Listen to some older stuff tell the truth is one of my favs somewhere beautiful is another one
@rode.morrismusic
My goodness this song connects! Your lyrics are just so transcendent!
Reminds me of my dad and his Winstons and Coors beer.
These are the types of songs that I try to write.
@lanrenault2876
