All my life, I was even just wanted to attend the Grammys, like, just be there, so the fact that I'm nominated for Best New Artist, it feels like a dream.

The best feeling I ever get is when I finish a song, and it exists, and it didn't exist before, and now it's there, and it makes me feel a certain way.

When I was 4 or 5 and I could put complete thoughts together and really feel them, I remember watching the Grammy's or something like that and getting real emotional because I wanted to be up there.

While I revel in the memories of my own Grammy moment, I also know how it feels to walk away empty-handed.

I never had any expectations of winning a Grammy. It wasn't something I was set on, that I was hoping and praying and starving for.

It's a dream of mine to win a Grammy one day. I'm not saying I'm Grammy-worthy, but it would be a dream come true.

By the way, I got a Grammy, which was a big thrill.

I feel like if I won an award and I was giving my speech and the music started, that's all I'd remember, the humiliation I felt when the music started. It would mar the entire experience for me.

It really means a lot that I won the gold medal - but I woke up the next morning expecting to feel different. I felt the same.

As a kid, I dreamed of being nominated for a Grammy.
