Music is always changing and the changes are unpredictable.

Music changes, and I'm gonna change right along with it.

Professionally, I want to keep playing music; I can't escape that.

I never see songs as permanent. I'm always in a state of revising everything.

Every day I feel different about music, but what never changes is my love for it.

You can't stay the same. If you're a musician and a singer, you have to change, that's the way it works.

I never feel like I have to hang on to the music. I don't expect that the music will go away. Ideas are the only thing I can point to that are permanent and fixed.

You are still lucky - you have a certain type of people who keep buying your music - but then you can get typecast and have to keep making that same music, and you can change only slightly. It's risky to bounce around and change your type of music.

I grew up listening to everything. I have such a love for music, but I don't want to make the same album over and over again.

If certain songs become popular enough to the point where I'll be playing them the rest of my life, I don't want them all to dwell on the same down moment that I'll have to keep reliving.
