I once went on the most grueling radio tour. Living in hotel rooms, sleeping in the backs of rental cars as my mom drove to three different cities in one day.

I don't know if I could do this with the same energy, and in the same way - all the costume changes and glitter and hair and makeup - all the time. When I'm in my 50s, I kind of think I'll want to be in a garden.

I feel like my dating life has become a national pastime, and Im not comfortable providing that entertainment anymore.

The term trying to forget someone is so awful because you’ll never forget someone if you’re trying to forget them.

The most miraculous process is watching a song go from a tiny idea in the middle of the night to something that 55,000 people are singing back to you.

My experience with songwriting is usually so confessional, it's so drawn from my own life and my own stories.

Factoring in millions of people when I'm writing a song is not a good idea. I don't ever do it.
