I bought [John Lennon's] 'Plastic Ono Band,' and I listened to it over and over for months. It's a monumental work of genius.

I have a great time with my band and on the stage we get along well.

Love , creativity, and opportunity is in the air. Take it in and do your thing.

To let go of the illusion that I'm in control is an important lesson, because I tend to be a person who likes to be in control, not only of my art but of my life and things around me, and it can be healthy up to a certain point, but at the end of the day, we have to go on faith and learn to let go and ride the wave.

When I stopped trying to write songs, that's when I'm able to begin writing songs. You have to just use your life, and the things around you for your inspiration.

I was always talking about peace and love, even when I was a kid. That's how I grew up in my family.

I'm so happy. I am able to see the world just by making music, just by doing the thing that I loved doing when I was five years old.
