Yusuf Islam, formerly known as Cat Stevens, is releasing a new album - after retiring form the secular music business two years after his conversion to Islam in 1977. The only exception he made was early in 2005, when he wrote the song "Indian Ocean", the proceeds of which went to help Tsunami victims in the Indian Ocean.
I wonder what made him return to secular music?
I heard one of his new songs on the radio just now. "Heaven/Where True Love Goes", which has a clear religious/spiritual content ... and is not dissimilar to some Christian worship music I have heard.
