My music is in young people's lives because it's so much a part of their parents' lives.

I had always sung in my dad's shop. I worked there after school, and I'd be singing along with the top-40 records of the day.

Chelsea Morning is a great Joni Mitchell song and I guess I'm partial to her lyrics because they show me a slightly different perspective on life.

I am, I said to no one there and no one heard at all, not even a chair.

I think that if I have one hope, 1 ambition, 1 aspiration for the next 4 or 5 years it would be that I can improve as a writer and just be able to say more of what I want to say throught the music.

Well, I Am... I Said was a very difficult song, very difficult because I really had to spend a lot of time thinking about what I was before the song was written.

It's much harder to play myself. If I ever do a movie again, it'll be a singing serial killer.
