My mom and I have always been very close. She is my best friend. She had to make a lot of sacrifices early on in my life to make sure I got to do what I wanted to do.

I just want to make my music, and I want it to stand on its own.

I love eggs so much. I feel like my day hasn't started until I've had eggs. I'm probably gonna die from high cholesterol!

I always try to do something different. I don't think I've made the same record over and over.

I think it's important for people who love music to retain physical CDs or even vinyl, because it sounds so great and so much warmer than music over the internet.

For me, there's a fine line between being a cheeseball and being a good performer.

The coolest thing I've gotten to do in the past few years is guest star on Sesame Street.
