听力原文：W: Congratulations on your second album Love Is My Religion. M: Thank you. W: The message of love and friendship seems to be a running theme. M: It was some stuff I was writing about that came together. I wasn't meaning to write about those themes. W: So it wasn't a conscious decision to write about friendship and love? M: No, no. I wanted to write an album that was more spiritual, more emotional. W: Does that reflect where you were at the time you were writing the album? M: We're trying to be. We're trying to get feeling of the alignment of the planets. W: How long did it take you to record Love Is My Religion? M: It took one year to record the album. W: Was it shorter or longer than your previous efforts? M: That's about the same. W: Was it more difficult than your previous albums? M: No, it's more spiritual. That's what it's all about. There was more opportunity to realize that we're not alone in our existence. There's a lot more happening when you're alone in an environment. You can actually perceive the things you wouldn't perceive if you were around a bunch of people. W: So you prefer to work alone? So do I. M: Some people don't work like that. They don't like to be alone. W: I understand you played most, if not every, instrument on the album. M: Not every. I played a lot. I had an engineer working with me, Ross, who played some instruments, too. W: That must have been a lot of work. M: It's not work. It's great fun. It's great enjoyment. It's experimentation and mystique that worked. (20)
