But, I would be naive not to recognize the number of musicians who tell me they have been influenced by me and sight me - as well as Alex and Neil - as a musician who has been a positive influence on their playing.

That is what intrigues me; songwriting and song structure and expression.

I worry about my voice 24/7 when I'm on tour. It's like a pitcher and his arm. It's constantly the thing that my whole life revolves around.

For me, there is a lot of room for improvement and there are a lot of things I would like to be better at.

I was taking piano lessons with a very good piano instructor in Toronto, and I'm afraid due to my schedule and discipline, it kind of fell apart. One thing lead to another and I was unable to practice as much as I wanted to.

I would like to shift more into writing for and producing people.

Sometimes it's nice to have a song that can be taken more then one way, so it can be interpreted differently.
