You don't make a film and then be like I am only going to play it in my house and no-one is going to see it - that is ridiculous.

I think my first song ever was when my cat died. It was this awful, dreadful black cat who was angry and hated everything. Yet I was so upset when it died.

If we all knew how to make that jump from good to great then I think every song would be great.

As cheesy as it sounds, I feel like I do write a lot, not necessarily for a message to be taken away. I feel like it is a little bit egotistical to be like, "I hope they are a better person after listening to my song."

I love to act, so the only way I could act was through community theatre and they would just do musicals. My musical upbringing was show-tunes and it sucks and I have been trying to get away from it ever since.

It is one of those things that is universally connectable, people can connect to it from everywhere; music is like that universal language.

When I come up with something that I feel like people will connect with that makes me happy because I know that it would be something that would just go beyond me.
