The biggest difference between me and other artists out there is that they'll put anything out to sell a record or sell a ticket.

Before you tell yourself its a different scene remember its just different from what you've seen.

When you're a kid, nine times out of 10, everthing is pure depending on how you grow up. Everything is new as a kid, so it's all amazing and wonderful. But as we get older, things start to lose their luster or possibly their relevance. Things don't mean as much as they did then. I know the feeling.

You can have the best intentions in the world but if you do nothing, you are nothing.

I'm a very lucky guy. I get to write music that I love, and lo and behold, people seem to really like it. I know how fortunate I am.

You ever want to feel powerless? Watch the people you care about being hurt and know there is nothing you can do about it.

I don't mean to be overly sensitive or anything like that, but you just have to take a minute in every day, and just reflect on where you are, and just realise what you've got, because you just never know where the next huge change in your life is going to come from.
