I definitely know that there’s somebody looking out for me, because I could never do this alone.
If you have something about yourself that’s different, you’re lucky. It’s not a curse.
I put out one album one week, and I’m already worried about the next one. I feel a lot of emotion throughout the course of a day. But not to the point where you need to be worried about me.
For me, writing a song, I sit down and the process doesn’t really involve me thinking about the demo-graphic of people I’m trying to hit or who I want to be able to relate to the song or what genre of music it falls under.
The longer you’re with the wrong person, you could be completely overlooking the chance to meet the right person.
I don’t know if I could do this with the same energy, and in the same way – all the costume changes and glitter and hair and makeup – all the time. When I’m in my 50s, I kind of think I’ll want to be in a garden.
I’m not opposed to falling in love.
Sophistication isn’t what you wear and who you know.
If I could go back I wouldn’t change anything. If I was popular I would have never left my bubble. I wouldn’t have ever tired to do anything different. I would have never become happy.
Everybody has a list of 100 things they would like to change about themselves. But it’s all about focusing on the good things.
We need music the most when we’re feeling things really intensely. I think the most intense times in your life are when you’re either falling in love or losing it.
I’m thankful that when I go to bed at night, that I have been myself that day. And, I have been myself all the days before that.
You can’t lead me down that rode.
Be good to people. Be good to every single person you come into contact with. My best friends are great musicians. But more than that, they’re great people.
We were built to fall apart and fall back together.
I always aspire to just be really nice to people. To be kind.
Be grateful more than anything in your life. If you have to put a priority on something, put a priority on what your thankful for and the people in your life that you’re grateful for.
You can never forget the people who were always there for you from the beginning.
Spending a lot of time alone, gave me a lot of time to think. A lot of time to think gave me the time to write songs.
Words, how little they mean when they are too late.
