To me, ballads are special, because you can have a pop song that’ll be know for three weeks and then you’ll hear nothing else about it. Nobody else will record it and it’ll just be gone. But if you do a good ballad, it’ll be in the world forever.

They scream, they cry, they love, they support, they defend, they listen. My fans are everything.

The idea is to take it a step forward and innovate. Or else why am I doing it? I don't want to be just another can in the assembly line. I want to create - do something that is totally different and unusual.

It's easy to say I love you with your mouth. But I like when people say I love you with their heart.

Before I would hurt a child, I would slit my wrists.

Children show me in their playful smiles the divine in everyone. This simple goodness shines straight from their hearts and only asks to be loved.

A lot of people misunderstand me. That's because they don't know me at all.
