I'm constantly exploring spirituality, sexuality, different aspects of love, whether it's romantic love or the love you have for your children. And love can be as devastating and destructive as it can be rejuvenating and life-giving. I guess I try to capture all of that.

When you're 25, it's a little bit easier to be daring, especially if you are a pop star, because eccentric behavior is expected from you.

No Separation! We all bleed the same color! #ceasefire #peaceinthemiddleeast #livingforlove

I didn't set out to write certain kinds of songs - I just set out to write good songs.

Nothing really matters; love is all we need.

I'm liking the idea more and more of just standing up with a microphone and talking.

Obviously, I feel a great sense of responsibility being a good parent and raising my children. I don't take that job very lightly. Who they are, what they become and what they contribute to the world is very important to me.
