I Am So Anti-people's Opinions

Shoot, There's A Committee To Tell You Everything At A Record Label. You Definitely Have To Know Who You Are If You Want To Look Like You At The End Of The Process. We've All Seen People Get Record Contracts, And By The Time They're Spit Out By The Machine, We Don't Even Recognize Them.

I Try To Write Relevant Songs About Life And Whatever I'm Going Through And Whatever People Are Going Through.

I Try Never To Focus On The Radio, Just Find Great Songs, Find Emotion And Just Write The Best Songs You Can. I Think When You Get Fixated On Trying To Do Something Too Accurate, It Becomes More Washed Out And Less What You Intended It To Be. So I Think Each Time The Challenge For Me Is To Try And Reinvent A Little Bit.

Every Storm Runs, Runs Out Of Rain

I Don't Want To Hear Songs About How Sunshiny Things Are. I Don't Like Songs That Feel Like Radio Candy I Like The Ones That Make You Think, Laugh Or Cry - They Pull Some Kind Of Emotion Out Of You.
