I think the moment you start trying to please a fan base is when you start going downhill. I'm going to always, always write about what I want, even if it doesn't necessarily cater to most of them.

Paper or razor blade, never give up And just remember just to hold out more A couple years ago I couldn't just control that thought You'd find me buskin' on the street When it was cold outdoors And now I'm sweating on the stage With the sold out tours Writing love songs for the sake of it Never to make a hit

For me, Spotify is not even a necessary evil. It helps me do what I want to do.

Never be friends with your exes if you weren't friends with them before.

[Miley Cyrus] got a fantastic voice. I do think she's a fantastic artist and does great songs. I wish her all the best.

'Kiss Me.' That's my 'Twilight' tune, a song you'd have on the 'Twilight' soundtrack.

In my eyes, there's no one better than Stevie Wonder. He's a top dude.
