Everyone needs a theme song! It should make you feel like a million dollars.

Occasionally, you get a nice surprise when someone covers your song in an extraordinary way.

I want people to listen to my music and everyone to feel included, and I think it's kind of working because all my audiences are always so colorful.

When I go to shows, I'm really looking forward to hearing the songs I know. I don't like it when a band tries to expose me to new stuff.

I don't need a sensationalized headline to sell music or to bring attention to my music. It's the music and it's always been about the music.

Here is how I work: when I think that a film needs to have a principal theme, I search for a melody.

To the audience, it's like I'm changing the subject every five seconds, but to me, my show's almost like a 90-minute song that I know exactly. I wrote every note, and I know exactly where everything is.

Everything I do, whether it's producing or signing an artist, always starts with the songs. When I'm listening, I'm looking for a balance that you could see in anything. Whether it's a great painting or a building or a sunset.

Where music leads, I follow.

I feel that people really feel they've got a part of me when they listen to my albums and the themes just show themselves.
