If you do things when you're burned out, it'll make you bitter.

My songs are about not knowing who to be and not knowing how to act.

I don't really care about money. I find money boring and accounting boring, so I'm probably not going to ever make a lot of money.

I've always been a loner, and I've spent most of my life as a single person.

Every song brings back memories, like I remember where I wrote all these songs. 'Universal Heartbeat' was my apartment in New York City. 'My Sister' was at my apartment in Boston. I remember places and I remember what I was thinking when I wrote it.

I still have all the faith and love for my music and yet I'm still playing places for kids.

Puerto Rico has a stray dog problem. Tens of thousands of homeless canines - hundreds of thousands, by some estimates - live and die on the streets and beaches all over this Caribbean island of almost four million people.
