You just have to follow your own heart. I listen to so many different kinds of music and at the end of the day you want to make a record that you're super proud of.

I appreciate CD's, but I've been digital for 10 years.

I can do whatever I want, I can have my band, I can use different people, I can use studio players, it's complete, total freedom for me. If I want to make a video, now that I own my own record company, if the video has an American flame being engulfed by a huge puddle of oil, I can do that, I can say that if I want to.

I call my wife and talk to my children four or five times a day. I've surrounded myself with great people and friends, plus I'm always willing to make amends.

I buy digital music off of iTunes all the time. I Shazam something in an airport or in a club or something; I Shazam it, I buy it. I am fully digital.

There's never the same road. It's always, every time it's always a different road.

I'm not a perfect song writer, but I am song writing problems with dynamics, instrument change and arrangements.
