Be like snow - cold, but beautiful.

I entered a songwriting competition, I didn't win, and one of the judges on the panel was an A&R man at a record label that had no other acts and I signed to them. We sent my demo out to five people and David Kahne got back to me that day, and said I think you're amazing I want to start with you tomorrow. He was like my Harvard reach school, I couldn't believe it. I was really excited. It was the first time anyone of any importance said I was good and I ran with that validation for a long time.

Walking through the city streets... Is it by mistake or design?

Sometimes I wish I was a beautiful machine so I could resist your kiss and not cry when you're mean.

[About Paz De La Huerta....] And there is this girl in the audience and she's gorgeous I can only kind of see her silhouette and she's getting like her t*ts out and I'm like: God, that's unusual.

I am usually always singing about the same god damn person so I will love him forever but you know, it's all good. It's all good!

I want to find someone who's really magnetic but who isn't going to do anything bad to me. It's hard.
