I tried carrying the weight of the world. But I only have two hands.

I have always been mainstream. It's so weird, because I don't see it as something negative at all. So many people see it as something negative.

I've always had a fascination with making your own music but never have been skilled enough to play the instrument, so to be able to make music without the ability was awesome.

My dad has always been a big Ray Charles fan, and I've grown up listening to all kinds of music.

Dance music is like a virus, it has affected so many different genres.

If I wanted to make a quick buck, there's far easier ways of doing it. What I want is to provoke people. If you want a hit song, all you need to do is rewrite an old song. It might have been proven to work, but you won't be remembered the same way.

Life's a game made for everyone and love is the prize. So wake me up when it's all over - when I'm wiser and I'm older. All this time I was finding myself and I didn't know I was lost.
