Everything I record, I just try to sound like me and come up with songs that suit what I do, and then just go for it.

For the most part, I like to record music as I write it.

Everything I record, I just try to sound like me and come up with songs that suit what I do and then just go for it. I never know what the public's going to like, anyway.

It's so funny because I listen to songs that I recorded that I didn't really know anything about at the time. Later on I'm starting to feel the songs. Sing them first, feel them later.

I'm a songwriter. Everything affects me.

All of my records have been very personal, just writing more and more songs, you get better at being able to say what you feel.

As a songwriter, if you can touch people and make them feel a little less alone in the world, then you've done your job.

I always try to write a song, I never just want to write a record.

I have a sort of tactility about music. I go into record stores and just run my fingers over it, the spines.
