I didn't just want to put something out that I wasn't satisfied with.

Well, I got married about two and a half years ago, and that's been a big change in my life.

I have way too many songs that have music but don't have lyrics.

I'm not a fast, stream-of-consciousness lyricist at all - I know some guys who are, and if there is one skill I wish I had, it's that.

It's an honor to win a Grammy, of course.

Sometimes I'll get a burst when I write lyrics, it usually happens in 20 minutes and I'll write the whole song, and that's really the only way it feels comfortable.

I wanted to have something that I was proud of and that I knew people would enjoy.
