The great thing about Adele is if you put her on top volume, you actually sound like her while you're singing.

I love Adele so much and it's honestly not because we're both big.

I use the music to vent, and a lot of the stuff that I am writing about or was writing about contained a lot of anger and anxiety, stress and depression, so that's how the album came out so dark.

I wouldn't mind being the male Adele. She came along, and people were like, 'Damn, we haven't heard anyone this real for years.'

Adele ain't soul.

Music is there to access those dark emotional corners that we don't normally get too close to.

I used to assume no one would care, but I do think now I've written songs that are useful to people having dark hours.

I love Adele, I want her to be my best friend. She could come to the U.S., live with me and sing to me every morning.

If Adele's seen as boring, then I'm happy to be boring as well.
