I don't listen to recordings of my songs. I don't avoid it, I just don't go out of my way to do it.

I always dress up for recordings.

I got more used to my own voice, but still it's hard for me to listen to my own voice, or hear the recordings.

I don't really listen to my work. If I have to DJ and I play something, I hear it. But I don't sit quietly and listen to my work; I'm always off to do the next thing.

Well I have a microphone and you don't so you will listen to every damn word I have to say!

When I make records, I never listen to stuff after it's done. Ever.

When I'm in the studio, I like to be in there by myself because if I'm in the mike room, and I look out and see people talking, or they're not nodding their head or rocking to the music, it makes me feel like it don't sound good, or I'll be scared to really open up vocally because I might mess up, and they might be in there laughing.

When it comes down to the music, it's just you and the microphone. It's not you and the record execs.

When I'm working, I always listen to music to zone everyone else out.

I think I'm a living embodiment of, 'Don't try to push me around or squash me,' whether its how I talk to a record label or in my relationships.
