Sometimes I Start Just On The Piano

I Think The Most Important Thing Is That I'm Making Music That The People Enjoy. So The Fans, The People That Are Out There Listening To Music And Consuming Music, I Want Them To Enjoy It And Love It. And So That's More Important To Me Than Grammys.

Some People, You Know, Should Just Go To College And Do What They Do And Have A Great Job And Not Worry About Trying To Be Famous As A Singer. It's Not For Everyone.

The Issue I Focus On The Most Is Extreme Poverty. I Think It's Kind Of Out Of Sight Out Of Mind. I Wish There Would Be More Stories About That To Connect People To What's Happening. To Personalize It, To Make It Real To People, To Inspire Them To Action.

I Would Tell Myself, "love Yourself And Don't Be Afraid To Take Risks." I Was Often Afraid To Take Risks, Socially, Because I Was Young And A Little More Shy And Still Figuring Out Who I Wanted To Be. Sometimes I Look Back And Think, "i Should Have Just Been Bolder And More Confident."

I Don't Feel Like That Many Musicians Are Competitive With Each Other.
