I don't think music is an art any more than cooking food is an art.

I think people like feeling miserable just as much as they like feeling happy.

I was born or raised in the church, so I guess the first songs I would have played would have been church songs.

I wouldn't consider myself a songwriter at all. Maybe I piece together a certain little thing here and there, but songwriters are people who do this with sheet music.

I'm just a guy that sings songs because that's what he likes to do, I guess.

I don't think music is an art any more than cooking food is an art.

I play popular songs. This is not some obscure, unusual music. This is popular music.
