Quote

My goal in life has been to be a songsmith, not a pop person.

I'd like to be remembered as a premier singer of songs, not just a popular act of a given period.

I'm not trying to be a pop singer.

I'll be the songwriter for pop stars and then they can be the front person and I don't have to be famous.

I'm a songwriter and I'd love to make that a part of my career.

I don't see myself as a pop star, just a singer.

I've always wanted to be a singer.

I've always wanted to be a songwriter and a storyteller and somebody who conveys a feeling to the listener or the viewer.

I don't consider myself much of a singer. I'm a writer first.

I only wanted to be a songwriter. I never wanted to be a singer. And I never wanted to be famous.
