A nice newspaper article with more information on his private life than usual. And some background info of the song Broken Bones.

What a nice article! Thank you for posting it, ElinaFinn.

It certainly helps one to understand why Mark is so comfortable avoiding the 'spotlight'. :winky:
Cheers,

Thanks for the link Elina, Mark is in a place now I think where he is very happy and relaxed with every he does, be that his music or his family life, and I love his songs in where he is looking back at his younger days.

Yes, thanks for posting this, Elina. I have been thinking that the album has a very reflective feel for Mark personally, and it is a cinch he is comfortable in his own skin, perhaps more-so than ever before.
