Music is not just a part of my everday life, I'm surrounded by it every minute.

I definitely I prefer to sing in the car. I don't sing in the shower, maybe its because that's the one time I don't need to talk to anyone so I should just shut up, otherwise I'm just, you know, jibber jabber.

I'd rather have people really be able to step back and get their money's worth and look at me as a true artist than somebody who is just regurgitating other material.

Music is not just a part of my everday life, I'm surrounded by it every minute.

If I were to categorize what I sing, I have many different influences, and a lot of them are from back in time.

First thing I did when I found out I made it into the top 13 is I tried not to faint and you know, I took it all in and I really looked at the crowd and said a big 'thank you'.

The kind of audience I'm speaking to is a very wide range of people.
