When you're not working with the same people, you tend to sound different. Even if my personality is the same, it's reflected off different people.

I think my strength is in shaping a song - you know, making it feel like it reaches its peaks and valleys, and ends when it should end.

As I say to people, never say never.

I just think I just noticed that when I was working on other people's music I found myself missing a bit of the total control I had doing my own.

If I try to figure out what people want and give it to them, it's a failure. If I try to please people and figure out what's going to get me from point A to point B, I fail. But I think if I do what I want to do, in the long run, maybe not tomorrow, but at some point, I think it'll pay off and it'll at least feel honest.

I'm trying to honestly do what I want to do, in the most honest way, and not worry about the consequences, because what's the worst thing that can happen? People don't like it, I go home. I'm not going to get hung by my thumbs. And as long as I don't read the reviews or care about what people say on a website or worry about those kind of things, then I'll probably be very happy.
