If the Army helped towards my tuition fees I would then give them four years of my life.

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

I don't know how to write without thinking what people would want. You don't know whether they want you to be black or white, so you kind of get a gray, something in the middle.

It's always nice to be able to capture your life's experiences in a song and hold the emotion in that way.

I always wanted to be a Muppet. So when 'Sesame Street' approached me to guest star, I thought: 'I'm going to be on this!' It's pretty incredible stuff.

Things take a long time, but when it's right things move fast.

I have friends who were friends of mine before I did music and they are my friends now, and we share life experiences. It's no fun unless you're sharing with people, looking out for them as they are looking out for you.
