When you get to say something in a song you're not directing it necessarily at one person. When it's in a song it's easier to get it out. I don't really worry so much about it when I'm writing a song.

I can't really write unless I'm full of inspiration. And even then I can't write unless I have some alone time.

I have ideas for songs all the time, but musical ideas, like melodies, really come out when I'm in nature.

I know musicians who think that drumming and guitaring can be very meditative, but singing is different because when you think about things, you put words to them. So I try to just stay present most of the time, I try not to let my mind wander and I also try not to clear my mind. I like to still have thought and be aware of people and whatever that's happening, but I also like to just focus on the words that I'm saying.

I think everybody, no matter what they eat, they should eat at least fifty percent raw food. But I eat some seafood.

Nothing has happened too fast, nothing has happened too slow. It has been a mellow rise, and I'm thankful for that. I haven't lost my head, and I haven't lost my desire to keep growing.
