Ladies love a soppy lyric. There's a real winner in 'Carry You Home'.

I guess if you're stupid enough to join the army without thinking about getting shot at, then you really are a fool.

We see differences in people and seem to be afraid of people. The black or white or gay or straight - I don't necessarily look for differences but for similarities. We need to be looking out for each other.

To get up on stage with a band is fantastic. To play songs to an audience is mindblowing.

I write songs about my own experiences. You can't lie to yourself. You can't pose to yourself.

I write, "Give me reason but don't give me choice, because I'll make the same mistake again." I think that's what most men want to be told.

No matter whether you are black or white, man or woman, gay or straight, Christian, Muslim, or Jew, we all share the same emotions, the same human condition.
