I've always made music from the heart, and that's what I do.

I'm all about change, and I know things are going to move forward in life, and that's just how it goes.

I really believe it's the old cliché, the more you give the more you receive. I'm living proof of that.

I don't tell 'U.S. Weekly' which parties I'm going to. I write songs.

The personal antics have overshadowed the music. I never wanted that but I knew what I was getting into when I got into everything I got into.

I'm not a greedy man; there really is nothing I couldn't live without. But if there was a fire, and I saved my child and my pets, I'd be happy.

I just wasn't raised a granola eating, peace love hippie type person. I'm from Michigan and was raised in and around Detroit where it is kind of you get respect and you give respect. That is how I feel.
