When I play live, it's a conversation that we're all having with the song, and the audience... their response and relationship with the songs is as valid as my relationship with the songs.

If I was writing songs just for me I'd only play them in my living room, alone.

People can travel great distances on a computer, so why can't we travel that way emotionally?

There are quite a few very funny people in my life. You know those people who don't mean to be funny, they just come out with these zingers that just make you howl with laughter. Usually you find these people in the road crew. A good crew is a key to a healthy funny bone.

I love the classic crooners, but I got that from my mother - she worked in a record store.

There are things that I refuse to deal with except through my music... because I don't trust humanity that much, and I don't know if I trust me that much. But I trust the songs.

Have a seat, while I take to the sky.
