I have lost this message three times...so I will just say millions have possibly been set free because he was so transparent in sharing that he had childhood seizures and was delivered through a spirtual encounter as a child. This will encourage others that it is not how a man starts but how is living his life. That no medical, health or other conditions can dictate how far you can reach in life...only the Lord and you determine the course. His insightfulness, quirky humor (especially about the misunderstood lyrics to "When The Doves Cry"and other songs) was hilarious and I LMBO...his transparency about his dad setting the bar so high may inspire other men to examine their relationship with thier son and explain why he is so driven, perfectionist and sees life through such a wonderfilly different prism...Since the early 80's I have learned to appreciate his gifts.... and his love for the Lord and the Word is always refreshing. Even though, I don't embrace his religion, I do embrace his love for the Lord and the essence of his spirtual beliefs I so love and respect this man and his gifts...U Go Boy

Loved the story about "A little Red Corvette and When The Dove Cry" lyrics?...I also saw this interview as more than just a marketing and public relation venure 4 his new cds but as a man coming to peace, with his present, past and future...and connecting with those who embrace his talents... felt a true connection and rapore with Tavis and him, it was if, he was talking almost like you would do with friends in your home...but of course, the exception would be, with million listening and watching...lol...what kind of feel did U take from the interview?

And did anyone catch the slight to Mayte's mother (I think). He said he knew a woman who had a pretty daughter, and she didn't speak a lot of English, or didn't speak it well. That perfectly fit Mayte and her mother. I think Tavis knew that (if it was true). His laughed might have indicated the "wink wink nudge nudge" moment between them.
