When you sing live, you cannot expect any artist, except for the amazing Beyonce or GaGa, to get it right every time.

Every performer wants to sing live. That's what I live for.

Even if you have a big tune, live crowds can get sick of it. It's not just about the song but also the staying power and if people have connected with it in a certain way. I know that the tracks I put more emotion and depth into are the ones that have the staying power in clubs.

We've never performed the song live outside of recording it in the studio. That was a dream come true because Whitney, she's an icon and she's been one of my main mentors in this business.

But I love singing live. Nothing beats the feeling of going out on stage and going, 'I can really sing.'

As far as my favorite songs to perform live, most of the songs we did live were my favorite. If they weren't, I would have gotten rid of them.

I feel like I am one of those artists that, thank god, can sing live.

It's easy listening to a record, but a live performance is so personal and real.

Good new songs are the backbone of the music industry. There isn't an artist out there who could survive without hit songs.
