Because I express myself through the music, I want to be responsible in that expression and how it carries on well after I'm here. But that's just me.

I always wanted everyone to love me, probably because I didn't love myself enough. But now I realize that when you're an artist, you're making the music that's in your head and in your heart, and not for any other reason.

If you make music for the human needs you have within yourself, then you do it for all humans who need the same things. You enrich humanity with the profound expression of these feelings.

I am a musician. My passion for music has obliterated everything in its path for my entire life.

I operate with an emotional fearlessness, and I really feel music; I really feel songs.

I take a lot of pride in my songs.

Being yourself is what will make you survive through anything. If you make music to please someone, it's the first step in the wrong direction. Always do what you believe in, no matter what people say. Only way to go!

I feel blessed and humbled that people have loved my music. Nothing would be possible without their acceptance.
