With songs, I've always pledged to be honest. I write my songs because I've lived them.

I never live in the present. I'd do interviews and people will say, "Isn't this great?" or "Can you believe?" And I would react, like, "No, I can't believe it because I'm not living in this moment."

My job is for the people. It's for the public. It's for their consumption. So I've done a lot in that way, and I see that the hard work has finally paid off.

I'm okay with having horrible lower teeth.

Find out what your gift is and nurture it.

I think you become more relatable when you're vulnerable.

I'm on this extraordinary adventure, and if I have no one to talk to at the end of the night, I feel lonely.
