Now, everybody knows my music. So that's really cool. A lot of kids know it. Now, when I go to a sports game, everybody knows my name.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Everyone knows almost everything about me. I make it very clear that I'm cool with people knowing all my personal life through my songs.
It's just cool to me that Bon Jovi knows my name!
What most people know about me, they know through my music. This time, I've tried to open that door as wide as possible. These songs are a giant step closer to who I really am and what my music is all about. Hence the title.
They all knew my name, but no one heard the music - I didn't look the same.
I don't want to put a name on my music. Other people can put a name on what I do. It's just the union of what I've been listening to and what I've been learning. It has some elements of classical music, it has some rock, it has some jazz, but I don't want to give it a name.
Once you've changed who you are or who you've portrayed in your music, the fans, they'll catch it... Once I feel like the world knows me for anything else but my music, then I feel like I failed.
One day when I have a band I will have a band name, but since it's just me I feel it should just be my name. For me it doesn't make much sense since the music is from me and about me. I haven't ever been in a band.
People see you on TV every day, they start knowing your name. You know, I was always just the guy from Maroon 5 until I became myself.
I listen to kids play a lot.
I don't ever use my name for anything in terms of getting the music heard.
