If people like your music, you can't guarantee they're going to love you.

It's hard to believe the life that 'Someone Like You' has taken on. It's proof that people hunger for great songs - and they are open to different interpretations of songs they love.

I'm such an emotional and sensitive person, so it only makes sense that my songs are as well.

Songs are a way to express what I have felt. A way to understand what happened to me or to other people.

It's a weird thing to say you want people to be sick of your song, but I guess that's what happens if your song goes really well.

Sometimes you have trouble because someone 'likes' your music so much. They follow you around for hours singing little bits of the songs, or just freaking out.

Most of my songs aren't about me. They're about stuff I've seen.

I can't imagine how people will react to my music. For me, it's a really fluid process from one record to the next, but it's really up to the listener.

Just seeing people appreciate what you do, come out and support it, and sing the songs back, there's not a better feeling in the world.

Writing songs is not something I wanted to share with people for a long time. It was precious to me. I didn't want someone to crush it. I waited until I felt strong enough to take the criticism.
