I want to keep people engaged and I want them to feel connected to what I'm doing.

The best thing to do is stare it in the face and move on. We have to face our fears and plow through. I think taking chances takes a lot more courage than staying stagnant and doing what's safe and comfortable.

I want to keep people engaged and I want them to feel connected to what I'm doing.

With age comes wisdom and confidence, and I don't feel like I'm seeking approval as much as I used to from other people.

When someone has cancer, the whole family and everyone who loves them does, too.

I think I've grown a lot in the last few years, and I needed to express myself as an artist on this. It wasn't necessarily about going in and making an album chocked full of hit singles... there were a lot of things I did out of the joy and the want to do it.

That's a song about reaching deep inside yourself where you can completely be who you are.
