When I sing, I pick out people in the audience and pinpoint on them. So if you feel that I am singing just for you, you may be right!

Sometimes you sing songs about the way you want to feel more than the way you actually do feel.

So it's the greatest compliment in the world when people want to hear you sing. That means it feels good to them, so I keep doing it.

When you raise your voice in song to express what's going on deep inside of you, I think people just react to that because it's so truthful. It's so raw.

You can sometimes get your own feelings across more strongly if you pretend that you're singing it from someone else's angle. But it's always from me. It's just a new way of framing it.

When I write songs, when I sing songs, I don't have anybody in mind. I'm just trying to express what I think people are feeling.

Whatever else has been said about me personally is unimportant. When I sing, I believe. I'm honest.

There's not only emotion in the way you sing but also in what you sing. That way I can compensate it.

When I sing, it's different from when I speak in a very interesting way. I think that, when you're singing, a message is carried in a different way. I don't know if that emotion needs a melody.

I'm very soulful. I grew up singing in church. When I sing a song, I like to feel what I'm singing.
