Many of these early songs by Secretary Michael were experimental in the sense that they were purposefully written to engage the listener's emotions. He did this by changing the meter, the key, the accompaniment pattern and other variables midway through a song for the purpose of creating physiologic changes in the listener - especially feelings of peace.
As with all Secretary Michael songs, these are secular works often focused on tolerance and are suitable for thinkers of all ages.
