I can relate to soul, R&B... whatever people want to call me is fine. I just hope it makes them feel something.

Across the board, from my mother to my father to my aunts and uncles, everybody has always given me a lot of love.

Nothing is more powerful than beauty in a wicked world.

I'm always flattered and honored when people cover my music or sing my songs, no matter where it is.

I'm in love with a girl who's in love with the world.

I like down-to-earth people.

I wasn't a very good teacher.
