I feel a lot of different influences in my songs, and to me a lot of this music sort of already belongs to the public and to the culture. All we really do is write songs based on previous songs. This isn&#8217;t a strategy to spread my songs more, as we now have streaming services and what not &#8211; it&#8217;s more like a statement, that my music is part of something bigger than me.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The heartfelt and wondrous &#8216;Body Mass Index&#8217; featuring the Aarhus Brass Band is the second single to emerge from <em>Year Of The Flesh<\/em>.
