SUMMONER'S TALES...
"I'm not for people asking me to make a very grand statement about music. Music can make sense of a lot of emotional issues or political issues in some way but I'm not sure it is so powerful that it can change the world overnight with one song. I think as a songwriter, you can plant the seed in someone's mind and that person may become part of the political class or influential class that can change the world later, perhaps."
