We all have different relationships with music. But the music is always there.

Sometimes it's hard to open up about your personal life, your relationship because you always want the music to be in the forefront. You want the music to be the biggest carrier of everything that you represent.

Maybe my songs are my partner. How 'bout that? Yeah, the biggest relationship I have is with my songs.

Music is like girlfriends to me; I'm continually astonished by the choices other people make.

If I have one success in my relationship history, it's with the people who listen to my music. I think that they'll be there with me forever, and I'll be there with them forever. And I'm totally satisfied with that.

The only love affair I have ever had was with music.

Music is a lady that I still love because she gives me the air that I breathe. We need all sorts of nourishment. And music satisfies and nourishes the hunger within ourselves for connection and harmony.

When you're in the music business, everything is very personal, because you are invested in everything; there's a very deep, personal attachment to your music.

Music is shared. It's a shared feeling; that's what music is all about. When you listen to a song with someone else, it becomes more than just a song. It defines relationships.

Every single person in my life and every relationship I have is distant because all I do is music.
