Ray Charles!

I've just had my biggest inspiration and idol respond to me. You have no idea how much that means to me. Thank you for everything Sammy!

Can’t Stop Loving You

It's a song by Ray Charles with the same name :)

Hello Sammy!

First of all, I would like to congratulate you to the release of your new album with The Circle, it totally kicks ass! As for my question, it is about one of my favourite albums of all time, 1995's Balance. While my personal favourite track from the record will always be the anthemic "Can't stop lovin' you", I have to ask whether some tracks from the album were influenced by the rising Grunge movement, mainly "Don't tell me (What love can do)"? Ed's guitar sounds like something you would hear on an Alice in Chains record and your vocal performance follows the classic tame verse loud chorus tame verse style popular in Grunge music. Also, as an amateur vocalist, what are some essential exercises to help your pipes stay in shape? You sound absolutely amazing after decades of performing and I just know there must be a secret to it, excluding all the Cabo Wabo Tequila. I wish you all the best in the future and I'm looking forward to any of your next releases! And hey, if you ever decide to do a European tour, I'm buying the most expensive fucking tickets to hear the Hagar Howl from the front row. The Colours of Ostrava festival would be so glad to have you and your friends The Circle.

Keep on rocking!
