We're putting a lot of pressure on ourselves for this second album and so we want to make it as great as we possibly can.

There's a lot of pressure putting an album out all over the world and hoping people everywhere like it.

When you have a reputation for making not only good songs but great albums, that in itself creates added artistic pressure. But, at the end of the day, I guess that pressure is something I welcome.

A lot of people give in to those pressures and let others influence the process on their second albums because they want to achieve the success they had with their first again, but they don't know how to do it.

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

It becomes more important to me as time goes on to make every album the best thing I've ever done, so it's a lot of self-imposed pressure that also kind of slows me down a bit.

There was an enormous amount of pressure when my first album took off, and I struggled with the speed of everything and the exhaustion from the constant touring.

Everyone gets that second album syndrome.

It feels great to have a #1 album.

It's a shame in a way that people come and go with one album.
