I love collaborating.

I usually find several ways to express myself: different moods, different days, different voices, different things, 'I'm lighthearted today, I'm gonna do this.'

When I look back on my knee-jerk reactions now, I realize I should have just taken a breath.

When you say something is very different to a core base that expects heavy music from you or very aggressive music, everybody tends to go, 'Oh, they're gonna get mellow, they're gonna get soft.'

It's amazing how, over time, a person's perspective can be altered.

I love jazz music and sad music. I'm a sentimental guy. I'm a romantic guy.

And touring is difficult when everybody's heads aren't in the same place.
