The song came out to be a gem, just came out to be a really, really interesting rendition of it.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Once I come up with the concept, the rest of the song just comes.
I was listening to the first record the other day, and it sounds remarkably contemporary.
Single Record of the Year and New Vocalist were such a blessing to see, but when I saw that I was up for Album of the Year, that's when I started to be like, 'What in the world, this is crazy!' That one really got me in a pretty different way.
A great song is a great song.
I'm sure there's going to be some material from This Is Not Going To Be Pretty. I usually use that song to just introduce myself to the audience, although the patter in between the song is always different.
It's amazing what some people read into songs.
I had so much fun playing songs from 'Based On A True Story...' and getting to see the crowd's reaction to those songs was unforgettable.
I'm a huge fan of 'Heart On My Sleeve' - I think it has a 'Take That' feel to it! John Shanks and James Morrison wrote the track, and we spoke to Sony and asked if we could reference a 'Greatest Day'/'Rule The World' sound to make that epic ballad. I think it does the job.
It's lovely being in a hit.
I stumbled into soul music at a very young age. It had something that really spoke to me.
