A lot of the way I sing is playing off other musicians. It's what I love to do the most.

My inspirations include the Beatles - love, love, love them - Elton John, Carole King, and Stevie Wonder.

We kiss and hug our kids a lot! And even now when our son lives 3,000 miles away, we talk every day, sometimes several times.

You want your fans to like what you do, because it's coming from your heart and soul. You write it, you produce this thing. It's like your baby.

We seal our fate with the choices we take, but don't give a second thought to the chances we take.

I have great genes. Thank you to my mom and dad for that one.

The reason I’m not more political is because I have music. And from a young age, I needed it. After prison, my father came to America, joined the Army, fought in Vietnam - and was exposed to Agent Orange. He died a slow, horrible death. Music was my escape.
