Obviously, with your first album, you want to make sure you are really happy with it.

I feel that my playing on the first album was probably some of my best.

My first album is playful.

My first album is a lot of my personal experiences. I wanted people to relate to what I've been through.

I definitely have favourites in terms of albums.

Having a successful first album is one thing, but a successful third is another.

The first album was a very successful record. It made me very visible and it's an immediate association, but I don't do that anymore. Now I'm true to myself as an artist again. I'm more vocally oriented.

The hardest thing about writing my second album is that I had 20 years to write my first album.

The second album is the hardest to write. It's nothing like the first album.

Those albums are so important to me because, for the first time, I was making my own music, paying for it, finding strengths in it, and going through the process of finding the right music for the record.
