I was just a very dark kid. My family was complicated.

Nobody ever sees me. Thank you.

All of my music, my stage show, my personality, my blog, my twitter feed, anything that's made me me, and a huge part of why people like and respect me, is that I just don't spend much energy on that other stuff. It's not worth it. It's a losing battle too. You're just screwed the minute you engage.

If you come across an American artist right now who has no political opinions or is afraid of talking politics, be very concerned.

When we really see each other, we want to help each other.

If you love people enough, they will give you everything.

I get really fantastic results when I just get out of my own way.
