Happiness is like a cloud, if you stare at it long enough, it evaporates.

I don't tend to question things that much. If it feels right, I go for it.

I don't think about what other people want from me.

I go out on the road for much longer than I probably should and lose more of myself than I should.

I kind of have a happy magnet. I can't stand being depressed, so I work my ass off to get out of it as soon as possible.

I play piano every day.

I sort of feel like music saved my life when I was young. This is the one thing that I knew I was good at.

I think a lot of contemplation happens in bathtubs. It does for me. Nothing like a hot bath to ease the tension and think about what's going to happen next.

I think I've become a much better singer and a much better player. Years and years of playing a couple of hours every day will do that.

I'm really lucky that my record companies have been patient with me and leave me alone and give me the time to make it right in my mind.

I've always been incredibly lucky that the music that I make, other people like it.

I've been so busy I haven't had a chance to go crazy. I don't party like I used to.

Nothing outside of my child is important.

'Time after Time' is one of the best pop songs ever written, in my opinion. It's an incredible, beautiful, timeless song.
