A drunk tongue is an honest one in my opinion.

I'm just writing love songs. I'm not trying to be pop. I'm not trying to be jazz. I'm not trying to be anything. I'm just writing love songs. And everyone loves a love song.

Heartbreak can definitely give you a deeper sensibility for writing songs. I drew on a lot of heartbreak when I was writing my first album, I didn't mean to but I just did.

I doubt I'll be singing forever, because at some point people aren't going to want to hear my music, and I hope that I'll still get the opportunity to write songs.

My worst fear is my music won't connect with the public.

I don't care if you're black, white, short, tall, skinny, rich or poor. If you respect me I'll respect you

It's warts and all in my songs, and I think that's why people can relate to them.
