When I was little, there was this singer named, Cat Stevens. Now, his name is Yusuf.

I'm impressed by all this man has done. When he was living in the world as Cat Stevens, I didn't know much about him...except my family liked his music. And we named a kitten that we had: Cat Stevens. I saw a concert of his on tv a year or so ago and even back then, he was someone reaching toward enlightenment: "I never wanted to be a star".
He had such wisdom in his lyrics. He's the only singer I know who made a shift and has only gotten better...in his wanting to make a difference...some singers get worse: hence the excess of sex, drugs, rock and roll.
Cat Stevens/Yusuf is my hero.
