It was always meant to ease out of a big radio song and flow into the next one. Don't is the bridge song in between Sing and Thinking Out Loud.

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

I used to get drunk in venues after my shows and sign the walls "Ed was here." So if you see that, it was me.

The public has heard the stereotypical love songs a million times, and they've heard the stereotypical life-or-death songs millions of times. It's good to mix it up a little bit.

I would say, you can never do enough gigs and you can never do enough songs. Make sure that every opportunity you can, play a show and every opportunity you can, write a song.

My uncle always said, ‘Hurry slowly.’ I guess, it means, have the intensity of love but don’t rush into it. Have the full feeling but take it slow. Ease into it.

As far as songwriting, my inspirations came from love, life and death, and viewing other people's situations.
