<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;

for me and I’m very excited about that new direction. The fact that my
interests have changed as I grow older is reflected in this album,” said
Schlitt.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;
font-family:Arial'>“The subject matter on this project is just as
important as the music,” explains Schlitt. “The songs cover a
variety of adult-themed topics including adoption, divorce, taking care of
third world children, among other issues of importance in today’s world.
It’s timely for me to do an album like this; not only from the standpoint
of the subject matter, but also in the fact that the music itself is going down
a whole new path.”<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;
font-family:Arial'>“My son-in-law, Dan Needham, produced the
album,” adds Schlitt. “So, ultimately I felt a lot more comfortable
going places subject-wise that were really personal to me. There were
actually some moments during the process of recording when we all got choked up
and had to stop. That was a new experience for me<span class=GramE>.“</span><o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
