The 'music industry' is not a term I use. I tend to concentrate on music, and the music business is something different.

At the end of the day, there's only a few major stars in the music business, and then there's all these people that are aspiring to be that.

Lots of people, from what I can see, just want to get into the music business for the glamour of it. But there isn't any, really. It's so up and down this industry, but if you really love it, nothing can stop you.

But anyone who knows anything about the music industry knows it's not only about the music.

I prefer career artists that have spent time honing their craft, as opposed to, 'I won a karaoke contest on a reality show and now I have a record.' That's such a drag. The music that comes out of it is so poor.

I'd call what I do pop music, but it's folky and electronic and it doesn't really sound like much else.

A lot of people these days are not music lovers - they just want to be famous which is a very different thing to what I grew up believing in.

I don't even know what words to use to talk about the music industry anymore. But the business has changed a lot - the methods of releasing music.

The music industry is a world of smoke and mirrors: they tell you exactly what they think you want to hear. And they are bare-faced lying. I tend to stay away from that.

Everyone in the music industry is so fun and laid-back.
