Entertain the people. Give them something they're not ready for, make them talk.

I really try to wake up with my music the same as I do with my life, and that is with no expectations. I just feel what I feel that day and follow it.

Inspiration and stealing are two completely different things. If somebody wants to make a song like "Stairway to Heaven" and writes a song on acoustic guitar, Led Zeppelin does not own every song that's on acoustic guitar for the rest of time.

While other kids played with cars and toys, I listened to music all day. I wanted to sing it and learn it.

Entertain the people. Give them something they're not ready for, make them talk.

There's an audience for all kinds of great art.

I don't like labels, but I do have blue eyes and I'm soulful, so what am I going to do?
