I've had fans come and knock on my door. I'm usually polite, but I'm usually very direct and say, 'It's not cool that you come here uninvited.

I try never to focus on the radio, just find great songs, find emotion and just write the best songs you can. I think when you get fixated on trying to do something too accurate, it becomes more washed out and less what you intended it to be. So I think each time the challenge for me is to try and reinvent a little bit.

I'll take lying in your arms tonight over and above any love I've known. Memories may find me, but they'll always be behind me. I'll take today over yesterday, anyday.

Every storm runs, runs out of rain

I am so anti-people's opinions when I'm making a record, but when it's finished and I put it out there, I hope somebody likes it.

If you date a musician, you're never, ever really gonna be first either. You're gonna be right behind the music and maybe right close.

I'm really private, and also, when I'm home, I'm home. I don't like people in on my business. I believe that you can be overexposed.
