Think I'll flip a coin, I'm a winner either way Mmmmmm, I feel lucky today

A dreamer born is a hero bred.

So I think that if I do feel more freedom right now in my career, it's not so much because I have less at stake but more a sense that I've learned more.

I was really young, but I can't say that I wrote much of anything. I liked to scribble; I thought of it as that. But I was playing guitar and ukulele when I was in second grade.

I certainly felt the desire to reach as many people as I could; I wanted to make the most of this opportunity, sure. But I wouldn't call it pressure the way we're thinking of it now.

It's a marvelous feeling when someone says I want to do this song of yours because they've connected to it. That's what I'm after.

We all have two lives. The one we are given and the one we create.
