Nobody can tell you you're wrong for writing a song about how you feel - even if you don't really feel that way.

If I were a painter I would paint my reverie If that's the only way for you to be with me

A record is just a snapshot of where you are at any time.

I could do without 'cool' publications calling me 'mom jazz.' But I laughed all the way to the bank, baby.

I don't go about playing music differently. It changes my sleeping schedule and my drinking habits, that's what I like to say.

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.

It's not like once you achieve success, you're done, you know. It's like, still enjoy doing what you're doing, that's the key for me.
