Quotes

  • I think sometimes I can be a little bit detached from the songs that I know will be hits because they're less personal. Sometimes I can tell when I'm writing catchy melodies and stuff and I'm proud of it. Although, if there were an actual formula for it, I'd be loaded by now.
  • Music is the only thing that is going to be there for me, no matter what. So when I finish a song, I love it and I play it out loud. It's the best thing I've ever felt. Better than love, I think.
